milter=

Name of the Mliter that issued the log record syslog equate

The milter= equate shows the name of the Milter that was used to prevent the message from being sent. That name was set by the X configuration command when your configuration file was created. For example, the following sets the name of the Milter to Milter1:

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`Milter1', `S=local:/var/run/f1.sock, F=R')

If a message is prevented from being delivered by this Milter, the following equate will be logged:

milter=Milter1

This equate is most useful when you run multiple Milters.
