I'm trying to get MailScanner to work

[Billy A. Pumphrey]

Nope, no defunct. :)
I commented the 127 thing out and got the tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25
0.0.0.0:* 
Spamassasing is already set to no
I set virus scanning to none
Restarted MailScanner
Still no luck

I added a file in /etc/mail called relay-domains and put in:
woodmaclaw.com
www.woodmaclaw.com
restartmailscanner
no luck

With your directions on watching the output, I don't really know where
to watch at.  Run a message through do you mean from outside to inside?

Thank You
Billy Pumphrey

That could be the case...

do you still see <defunc> on MailScanner Processes after doing service
MailScanner start?
you might also again what to try setting Debug = Yes, then restart
MailScanner (service MailScanner restart) then run a message through,
and
watch the output for indications of problems.

and if memory serves me correctly, since you didn't install SpamAssassin
yet, you should also have "Use SpamAssassin = no".

List of stuff so far:

I installed red hat 9 gui without spamassassin and with sendmail
Installed the development tools Installed mailscanner using ./install.sh
I edited the mailertable file with this:
woodmaclaw.com          esmtp:[10.1.1.2]
www.woodmaclaw.com              esmtp:[10.1.1.2]

Then this: make -C /etc/mail

Then made sure that the /etc/mail/relay-domains was empty or did not
have woodmaclaw in it.

That's it so far and no worky.
What do you think?

Also it seems that I read that if you don't set virus scan = none if you
have none that the email won't get delivered, is that true?

Thank You
Billy Pumphrey

I think there's an RPM called "rpm-build" or something like that.
Install
that for starters. You should have installed the development tools when
you
installed RH9.
