postfix/procmail

[Pete]

If you were to use procmail you wouldnt use it on the incoming postfix.

To get get postfix working with MS - make sure you have a working 
version of postfix installed, it recieves mail for your domain and 
rejects attempts to relay, it delivers mail properly for your domain. 
<<<This is a prerequisite, installing mailscanner when you dont have 
postfix working is going to be tough.

Once Postfix is working properly, go to the installation doco page on 
www.mailscanner.info and do the postfix installation instructions (you 
could repeate them at this stage to troubleshoot your problem below, see 
whats different).

Then install mailscanner.Have a look in 
/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf , as long as you have Virus Scanning = 
yes MailScanner is working, yes it canm stop messages/attachments 
without having additional virus scanners installed.

Tri8ple check yopu have created the correct dirs and applied correct 
permissions, as per the postfix install instructions above.
