"Ada_Milter_API_test_milter" may for example be the name of an email account, or a part of the account name, or it may be included as an address extension, as in "account+Ada_Milter_API_test_milter@domain.example", if the MTA supports address extensions. + +The test milter creates a Unix domain socket named /var/spool/test_milter/milter_socket. The directory /var/spool/test_milter must already exist, with write permission for the test milter and search permission for the MTA. The directory may be a symbolic link if the socket needs to be in some other directory. |
