this was remmed out so I unremmed it in sendmail.cf
restarted mailscanner
after a few moments I got the following mesage
Error initialising detection engine - missing part of virus data
I checked the date, time and version for the ide and its correct.
I re-remmed the size setting and restarted mailscanner.
Still the same
I did a manual down load of the last signature just in case it had
corrupted and restarted mailscanner.
Still the same.
I emailed the list and got it thrown back - rejected by Listserv..
Shut down and restarted mailgateway sent  the test message and
its now fine.
Is there more to amending the sendmail.cf than meets the eye?
