There is a startup from the log above and this tells status:

$ service MailScanner status
Checking MailScanner daemons:
MailScanner:                                      [  OK  ]
incoming sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
outgoing sendmail:                                [  OK  ]

Not sure about this one..

$ service sendmail status
sendmail (pid 16470 16463 16457) is running...

However in ntsysv only MailScanner is marked to be statup up
on boot, sendmail is set to off..

Would jkf AT ecs.soton.ac.uk be the right address?
