i tried to modify the configure file to directly include the milter library, but it failed.
i made another work around that put stuffs from the milter library to the directory "/usr/lib" and the compilation of libmilter++ succeeded.
files of libmilter includes:
libmilter.a libsm.a libsmutil.a
so , these three achrives should be found under...
