Hi,
Finaly got these scripts onto a test server along with MailScanner
4.13.3.
changed 2 lines in the master.cf file, added the scripts (all in the
location sujested in the posting)

But the main problem im getting at the moment is the mailscanner startup
script, which is trying to start sendmail instead of postfix and is
passing options to it that postfix dosn't reconise :(
it is also aparently (i may be misreading the code here) trying to start
2 instances of sendmail :(
how have you edited the start script for mailscanner for use with
postfix?

Thanks for the help :)
