sendmail configuration

[Julian Field]

I would advise you to remove procmail again (it's extra complexity you
don't need). Then put your sendmail configuration back exactly the way it
was before you started doing all this.

To use SpamAssassin from MailScanner, all you need to do is set
Use SpamAssassin = yes
in MailScanner.conf.

No procmail, no extra spamd daemons, no sendmail config changes, none of
that stuff.
