MailScanner and Ensim Webppliance

[Mark Lundy]

I have the same issues.  Even with the fixes in place from this post,
mail comes to a halt on my Ensim server with MailScanner running.  I
would appreciate getting copied on anything you or Julian come up with.
 I'll keep plugging along and let you know
if i come up with anything.  Thanks.
