upgrade problems cont.

[Stuart Clark]

When upgrading I accidentally did this (notice the MailScanner.)

cd /etc/MailScanner
upgrade_MailScanner_conf MailScanner.conf MailScanner.conf.rpmnew >
MailScanner.
mv -f MailScanner.conf MailScanner.old
mv -f MailScanner.new  MailScanner.conf




Also I can't find my MailScanner.conf.rpmnew anymore.
MailScanner. is empty

And when I copied the old conf file from backups I get this

Check you don't have a /etc/sysconfig/MailScanner.rpmnew. If so, merge the
old settings into the new one. The new one auto-detects the MTA from
/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf. What does the line in MailScanner.conf
that sets your MTA look like? It should just be like
MTA = sendmail
or similar.

I think that is where the problem is, as shown by the "Invalid MTA" error
in your output.
