Startup script

No luck :( I've tried doing this in the MailScanner.conf and in the
MailScanner startup script. There are no errors produced this time, but no
bandwidth is recorded.
Is there anyway to decompile the shared library (/lib/libensimvwhbw.so)?
I've attached the whole sendmail init script incase you can see something
that can be copied/added to the MailScanner script. Is there someway of
running MailScanner, but call sendmail using it's own init script? Just
looking for ideas...
