Hello.

Is it possible to use ppymilter as a milter client, not the server? I
use twisted mail server as MTA and need to check some mail against
milters.

Not sure what you mean by milter client.  Isn't the mta the "client" of the milter?  (Since it initiates the connection.)  Does the twisted mta support sendmail milters?

It doesn't appear to have milter support. I think Art is hoping to use
ppymilter to add milter support to Twisted's MTA. If that's the case,
ppymilter doesn't have what's necessary to do so, unfortunately. It
would need to be a very different implementation.

Anyway, it will help a lot to dig into the protocol and write python
milter client by myself. Thanks.

Btw, does somebody know any milter client written with python?
