Installation on SuSe 7.1

[No Name Available]

Hmm, nearly knew it, but i gave it a try with the 8.0 rpm... :-)
But thanks for INfo, some more Question:

If removing the -A command-line Option in /etc/init.d/MailScanner is it
working right then? what does the A mean anyway? How does senmail know how
which mailqueue to process?
As far as I understood sendmail is still getting the mail on port 25 but
isnt processing it to the lokal mailboxes or the internet, but putting it
in an extra mqueue. There mailscanner looks for incoming mails and is
processing these to the mailboxes or the internet after checking for spam
etc, right?
But where is this behavior configured?
