When I untared the MailScanner-4.01-2.tar I got the following files:
Are the perl rpms suposed to be src rpms?
[root at hightowerownsu MailScanner-4.01-2]# ls
install.sh perl-IO-stringy-2.108-1.src.rpm
mailscanner-4.01-2.noarch.rpm perl-MailTools-1.50-1.src.rpm
perl-Convert-TNEF-0.17-1.src.rpm perl-MIME-Base64-2.12-1.src.rpm
perl-File-Spec-0.82-1.src.rpm perl-MIME-tools-5.411-pl4.2.src.rpm
perl-File-Temp-0.12-1.src.rpm perl-TimeDate-1.1301-2.src.rpm
perl-HTML-Parser-3.26-1.src.rpm tnef-1.1.2-sizelimit1.i386.rpm
perl-HTML-Tagset-3.03-1.src.rpm
Are the perl rpms suposed to be src rpms?
and get the following when running ./install.sh
[root at hightowerownsu MailScanner-4.01-2]# ./install.sh
Rebuilding all the Perl RPMs for your version of Perl
Missing file /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/perl-IO-stringy-2.108-1.noarch.rpm.
Maybe it did not build correctly?
Missing file /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/perl-MIME-Base64-2.12-1.i386.rpm.
Maybe it did not build correctly?
Missing file /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/perl-TimeDate-1.1301-2.noarch.rpm.
Maybe it did not build correctly?
Thanks

> Well, I've finally made it, here is MailScanner Version 4.
>
> There are loads of new features, but here are the most important. For
> everything else, read the ChangeLog in the downloads.
>
> - Completely redesigned and rewritten from scratch
> - Multiple concurrent scanning processes makes it run much faster as all
> the CPU's in the server can be fully loaded at all times
> - Ran 4 times faster than version 3 in speed tests on a dual-CPU system
> - Virtually all configuration options can have their value calculated from
> a ruleset allowing you to set different values depending on the From:
> address, the To: address or the IP address of the computer sending you
> the message
> - Now supports 13 virus scanners:
> Sophos, McAfee, Command, Kaspersky, Inoculate, Inoculan, Nod32,
F-Secure,
> F-Prot, Panda, RAV, AntiVir and Clam.
> - Added traps for all known Outlook, Outlook Express, Internet Explorer
> and Eudora security vulnerabilities.
> MailScanner is now a complete e-mail security system, not just a virus
> scanner.
> - Actions to take when a message is detected as being spam include any
> combination of
> "deliver" it to the intended recipient as normal
> "store" it in the spam archive
> "delete" it altogether
> "bounce" it back to the sender by sending them a warning message
> "forward" it to any other email addresses
> "striphtml" to remove all HTML content and images, leaving only plain
text
> - Supports multiple mqueue.in directories, either by specifying a wildcard
> in the MailScanner.conf file, or else by giving the name of a file
> that contains the list of directories.
> - A 4th security patch added to MIME-tools to handle messages better that
> have badly-formed MIME headers in sections of the message.
>
> Notes:
> ======
> 1) This release can only be used with sendmail. Exim support for this
> version will be released soon.
> 2) People who have been using the alpha test versions: I have removed the
> "Load SpamAssassin" option. You will need to ensure you remove this from
> your conf file as its presence will stop MailScanner starting.

> Download it all from www.mailscanner.info

> All comments to mailscanner at ecs.soton.ac.uk or this mailing list please.
> I hope you like it!
