Julian, I think his concern was more that upgrading mailscanner
was a pain because all these scripts had to be re-edited to
change the path to the virus scanners.  He wanted to put the
path prefixes in the mailscanner config file and make these
scripts use that prefix so that he only had to worry about bringing
over the config file with the new mailscanner install.  I have
the same problem and like his suggestion.
