Problem with postfix qmqr after MailScanner

[Bryan Oliver]

I am using postfix 2.1.4 and MailScanner 4.31.6-1q.  I have no reference
to anything with the word filter in my master.cf file for postfix.  This
is it's output:

It will be in master.cf. Have alook for a line like:

  # =============================================================
  # service type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command
  #               (yes)   (yes)   (yes)   (never) (100)
  # =============================================================
  filter    unix  -       n       n       -       10      pipe
    flags=Rq user=filter argv=/path/to/script -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}

or -o content_filter=filter:dummy underneath your SMTP line (Top line)

This problem usually occurs when you move to MS from AMaVis or similar
where Postfix pipes or connects to a mail filter program through SMTP/
LMTP. Which distro are you running?
