Ann: Milter API

["Björn Persson" <bjorn@xn--rombobjrn-67a.se>]

I needed to write a milter to expel the spammers from my mailbox, and
naturally I wanted to write it in Ada. I couldn't find a binding to
Libmilter so I made one. I present the first public version of the Ada
Milter API:

The binding is in a "works for me" state. It's written to match the version
of Libmilter that comes with Sendmail 8.13.8, because that's what I
currently have on my server. It provides almost all of the features in that
version of Libmilter, but a few pieces are missing because I don't use them
and they weren't trivial to implement. Later versions of Libmilter also
have new features that the binding doesn't support yet.

I use Milter API with Postfix 2.3.8 and it's working great, but functions
that I don't use are pretty much untested. I haven't even tried it with
Sendmail, because I use Postfix.

There is also a binding to the syslog functions, which Milter API uses:

Thanks in part to Milter API, I no longer need to obfuscate my email
address.
