Julian,

I don't believe that not printing the error message will make things OK
since a restart does a stop followed by a start and the start can't
succeed unless the stop has stopped all processes (which it doesn't).

PS: The versions I run (mailscanner-4.04-1 and mailscanner-4.05-3) still
exhibit this problem.
