The rpm's there seems to be 2.99.55... it's not clear wether a patch that
appeared soon after is applied...

Current version is not yet released, I'm working with 2.99.56-pre4 and CVS
has gone further these last days, but I'm staying with the pre4 tarball just
in case...

Anyway, in a reasonable linux you should be able to:

wget ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/mail/zmailer/src/zmailer-2.99.56-pre4.tar.gz
tar xvzf zmailer-2.99.56-pre4.tar.gz
cd zmailer-2.99.56-pre4
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/zmailer
make
make install
/usr/local/zmailer/bin/post-install -MD5
make install MANDIR=/usr/share/man

and be somehow up and running.

To start it:
zmailer
To stop it:
zmailer stop

You will actually see a bunch of processes:
smtpserver
router (I think the default is 4 router processes)
scheduler

I'm enclosing a /etc/rc.d/init.d/zmailer that I use...

I'm also enclosing an adapted /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner that only takes
care of MailScanner and avoids starting more than one copy... this one I
don't think will work in anything but a redhat > 7.1, but should be trivial
to adapt it to other linuxes..
