Didn't the upgrade saved your config in an .rpmnew file?

did you uninstall the 2.60 rpm?

What is your /etc/sysconfig/MailScanner file?

Probably perl-DBD-MySQL.  You must uninstall the rpm and install a previous version from source.  See Mailwatch's site.

>Help!

I have it running on fedora and sendmail.  You can contact me of list if necessary.
