This is a compatibility interface which emulates the \*(L"standard\*(R"
Sendmail::Milter \s-1API.\s0
.SH "FUNCTIONS"
.IX Header "FUNCTIONS"
The following functions are available in this module.  Unlike
\&\f(CW\*(C`Sendmail::PMilter\*(C'\fR, this interface involves a single, global instance of
milter data, so these functions are called without an object reference.
.PP
For each function, see the description of its object-based counterpart in
Sendmail::PMilter.
.IP "Sendmail::Milter::auto_getconn(NAME[, \s-1CONFIG\s0])" 4
.IX Item "Sendmail::Milter::auto_getconn(NAME[, CONFIG])"

.PD
.PP
One extension function is provided by this implementation.
.IP "\fBSendmail::Milter::get_milter()\fR" 4
.IX Item "Sendmail::Milter::get_milter()"
Returns the \f(CW\*(C`Sendmail::PMilter\*(C'\fR instance underlying this emulation layer.
This allows mostly-unmodified milter scripts to set PMilter extensions
(such as dispatcher and sendmail.cf values).  It is recommended, however,
that new code use the object instance methods described in
Sendmail::PMilter.
.SH "EXPORTS"
.IX Header "EXPORTS"
In order to preserve compatibility with the standard \f(CW\*(C`Sendmail::Milter\*(C'\fR
interface, all SMFI* constants described in Sendmail::PMilter are
exported into the caller's namespace by default.
.PP
(Note that \f(CW\*(C`Sendmail::PMilter\*(C'\fR itself does not export these symbols
by default.)
