What about to increase the Milter loglevel?

define(`confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL', `X')dnl

X ...
1 Bad reply codes, socket errors, timeouts, reply and state errors
9 header was added, deleted, replaced message body
10 connect to filters, connect endign
11 empty or missing socket information, unknown socket type, local socket name too long,
        unsafe socket, bad port, open failure, status, aborts
14 replay code, rejects, discards, deferrals
15 milter sender, milter recipient
18 header sent, body sent
22 time to complete a command

(see Sendmail 3rd Ed., p. 1019, \ufffd24.9.70.1)


What are the current milter flag settings, especially the timeout values
from T=... (X-line in .cf, F=, T=)?
