mailscanner dying

[Tim Lyons]

Julian,

I'd be willing to grant you the access providing you give me the IP
you'll be coming from.
Contact me off list as I'll have to re-install v3 (no big deal[tm]).

If someone is prepared to give me login and root access on one of these
machines where MailScanner is dying, I can do some investigations. But
without that, I just can't reproduce the problem :-(

Any offers please?

This is exactly the same version I am running, but under RedHat 7.1
instead
of your 7.2
