-------end MailScanner.conf-----------


My problem is:

 1) when system starts, it shows attempt of mailscanner to start;
mailscanner starts, but with some errors, I do not have time to write
down these errors, looks like it's connected with perl;

 2) when I try to send some message, sendmail saves it in
/var/spool/mqueue.in directory, I wait for long time, but it doesn't
move to /var/spool/mqueue.

So now I've stopped MailScanner in system autorun and set sendmail to
be in autorun. Please give some advise what to change in
MailScanner.conf, what to do with errors on MailScanner start up (and
how to write down that quick messages while system starts), etc.

Please send CC: of your reply directly to me.

Thanks for your time.
Best regards.
