Hi Phil,

I did indeed mean 0.90.2 and 0.90.3.
Just a typo.
But thanks for picking that one up.
Now, getting back to the problem. If this problem was solved in 0.91rc2, I obviously don’t have the exact same problem, although the result is the same.

The sock file is not being generated in time for the milter when its starts.

I could put a sleep command in on the startup scripts, but that’s not really fixing the problem, just getting around it.
