I don't have either of these. My mail server is still running F11.

My socket has the following permissions:

Check your ownership and permissions. I may have mucked with them years
ago, ISTR running milter-greylist at a time before it was packaged up in
an RPM, and having different userids than the RPM when I finally
converted over (or was that the SPF milter?)
Also, does your .etc.sysconfig/milter-greylist look like this?

I have 4 milters up an running with sendmail:
sendmail-milter-spf, milter-greylist, clamav milter, and spamass-milter
as well as 4 dnsbl (used to be 5, but one of them disappeared). I think
I got the spf and spamass milter RPMS from city-fan.org.
