I have been trying to install MailScanner version 4.32.5-1 on RedHat 9.0.
I used the RedHat rpm for install.  Problem is, when I stop sendmail, then
start MailScanner, I get this is my mail log:
Aug  8 07:08:55 jamesbond MailScanner[10479]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus

...then nothing.  No mail gets processed beyond that.  When I stop
MailScanner and then start sendmail back up, everything is fine.  What
could be wrong?
