mailscanner status command

[Dan Leavitt]

While on this topic, I thought I'd let you know that the output from the
start command is missing the [ OK ] message on my system.

Also, now that you've implemented the status command that reports on the
three processes, perhaps it would be appropriate for the start and stop
commands to do so also.  Here's the start/stop output and the status output:

[root-dll at server1 init.d]$ service mailscanner stop
Shutting down MailScanner:                                 [  OK  ]
[root-dll at server1 init.d]$ service mailscanner start
Starting MailScanner:
[root-dll at server1 init.d]$ service mailscanner status
Checking MailScanner:                                      [  OK  ]
Checking incoming sendmail:                              [  OK  ]
Checking outgoing sendmail:                              [  OK  ]
