Help! How to intall my milter??

I have written a milter, but now I cannot install it.

Following the book , I
add the following lines of codes to the sendmail.mc file.

" NPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`ourmilter ́, `S=3Dunix:/var/run/ourmilter.sock =CC=
=81)
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS ́, `ourmilter ́)"

However, when I use the command: $sudo make sendmail.cf
the screen will display error: Warning: excess arguments to builtin
`define' ignored


What is the meaning? And how to solve it?

Help!

It's only a warning which you can ignore.

Well, your INPUT_MAIL_FILTER() macro is obviously missing the initial
'I', but I guess that may be from sloppy cut'n'paste. And you should not
have the confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS define(), that is done by
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER() - either use MAIL_FILTER() + define() or only
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(). But the real problem is that your closing quotes is
som "garbage" character(s) - I guess it's utf-8 for some character that
resembles an apostrophe, but it has to be the real thing (ascii 39
decimal) - like this:

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`ourmilter', `S=unix:/var/run/ourmilter.sock')

Yes, the initial "I" is missing from my post:) but it exsits in the
configure file.
I will try your writing tomorrow. thank you:-)
