+                               The Ada Milter API
+
+   The Ada Milter API is a binding to Libmilter, the Sendmail mail filtering
+   API. A milter is a daemon that assists a Mail Transfer Agent, such as
+   Sendmail or Postfix, in checking messages and deciding whether to accept,
+   reject or modify them. This binding lets you write milters in Ada.
+
+Compatibility
+
+   Version 1.1.1 of the Milter API is intended to match the version of
+   Libmilter that comes with Sendmail 8.13.8, where the value of SMFI_VERSION
+   is 2. It provides almost all of the features in that version of Libmilter,
+   but lacks features introduced in later versions. This version of the
+   Milter API has been used successfully with Postfix 2.3.8.
+
+Documentation
+
+   There is documentation in the form of comments in the package
+   specification. In addition to those you should probably read the Libmilter
+   documentation, which is available at Milter.org and is also included with
+   Sendmail.

+   it under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3, as
