When you see "milter" think of mail filter. As far as the MMA milter I
would check out sendmails site.

As far as relaying is concerned you should most likely specify in
/etc/mail/access who can relay and deny all others. I don't believe this
is configured by default in SuSE. I've also bitched for years that they
should stop having it start with the -bd switch. Taking the -bd switch
out of the options for when sendmail starts will make it so it doesn't
accept connections..it just sends mail out. If you have a webserver or
something else that isn't a mailserver at all..then you don't need to
accept mail, just send. :)
