TTL? Do you mean timeout for sendmail-mitler interaction? I use whatever he 
recommends in the proposed mc/m4 lines. I think timeout is not critical for 
this milter as it doesn't query external sources and the processing it does 
is not that ressource-intensive.

Startup: just the executable name. I use a milter-null.cf for configuration. 
There's not much to configure, though, I use quarantining in the testing 
phase. Unfortunately, the quarantining is not explained anywhere. Now that I 
use it I can tell that it's not "quarantining", but flagging.

(It seems you can use a "milter-name.cf" for any of the Snertsoft milters 
and add any command-line option to it as you would add it to a command-line. 
Pretty easy, but not documented apart from mentioning the filename. What's 
nifty is that you get an output of all set options - including the config 
files ones - with a "milter-null -help".)
