Yes, that would do it. :-)

What is the srsmilter.py included with the pysrs distribution? :

-rwxrwxr-x. 1 902 101 8471 Apr 26  2011 /usr/local/pysrs-1.0/srsmilter.py


On your page
     http://bmsi.com/python/pysrs.html
you have the line
     HACK(`pysrs',`/var/run/milter/pysrs')dnl
If (as per your above comments) this is a socketmap and not a genuine 
milter, may I respectfully suggest that defining the socket in 
/var/run/milter/ is quite confusing?

So, if I run both the socketmap pysrs and some sort of SRS milter 
(bms.py or srsmilter.py), I would naturally need to define them on 
different sockets to avoid clashes, correct?

Thanks again,
David
