Hi,

in case someone is using the /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner startup script I
wrote for starting up only MailScanner (and not the MTA), that is at
http://baby.com.ar/MailScanner/StartupScripts/MailScanner and is referenced
from my instructions at http://MailScanner.info/install/zmailer.shtml

I just made a small upgrade of the script that is completely backward-
compatible.

It is now easier to modify it if you move or rename your configuration files
and/or directories.

The PID File and Incoming Working Directory are now read directly from the
configuration file, and it is easier to have multiple instances of
MailScanner in the same machine (I sometimes have 2 on a userless gateway for
processing with completely separated instances incoming and outgoing mail).

Regards.
