fatal: the Postfix mail system is already running

[Rosaldo Garcia]

Im totally lost in here could somebody help me ? I have running postfix and
ived just installed Mailscanner with the procedure on this links
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/postfix.shtml, how come
when i executed this command :
        Start the incoming Postfix
        postfix -c /etc/postfix.in start
        Start the outgoing Postfix
        postfix -c /etc/postfix start
        Start MailScanner
        check_MailScanner

I have this error logs " Mar  5 08:21:51 mail postfix/postfix-script: fatal:
the Postfix mail system is already running"

it seems that "postfix -c /etc/postfix start" already run with the previous
command?


Any help is much appreciated.
