Julian,
Installed, working great so far. I love the fact that the IP number and
domain name now appear in the spamassassin syslogs. Here's yet another
suggestion from the peanut gallery to make things even better:
* I wish there was an (initially empty) "etc-local" directory in
/opt/mailscanner for my tweeks to the configuration files in
/opt/mailscanner/etc. The idea here is that your default configuration
files go into /opt/mailscanner/etc, and my modifications to one of
your config files goes into etc-local. For instance, I have several
mods to /opt/mailscanner/etc/mailscanner.conf.solaris. Installing
a new version of mailscanner is painful because I have to go thru the
config files and re-tweek my changes before starting things up again.
This takes time, and mail stacks up in the queue meanwhile.
If there were:
/opt/mailscanner/etc/mailscanner.conf.solaris (your config, untouched)
and
/opt/mailscanner/etc-local/mailscanner.conf.solaris (lines containing my mods)
where the settings in etc-local override the setting for the corresponding
file in etc, then I can keep my mods separated from your defaults. The
logic of "read etc config file, read etc-local config file for override
settings" could apply to any file in /opt/majordomo/etc at startup.
