Dear Maintainer,

spf-milter-python can be configured to look up /etc/mail/access.db; this
is the default situation.  However, with sendmail, the /etc/mail
contents are group smmsp, e.g.:

This is only true when using sendmail.  It would fail (the group wouldn't
exist) with postfix.  I think this is something that needs to be done by the
system administrator after package installation.  It's not something we should
do automatically.

In any case, spf-milter-python is being replaced by pyspf-milter (spf-milter-
python has already been removed from Testing (which will be the next release).
If something can properly be done, it should be done there, if needed.

src:pymilter-milters was last released with Debian 10 (buster)
in July 2019 and has been removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
The binaries have been replaced by pyspf-milter and dkimpy-milter.
See https://bugs.debian.org/931567 for details on the removal.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
