Yes, that happens on the newer single-postfix MailScanner setup, where
you don't actually have a separate incoming postfix instance.
The Incoming Postfix section of the init script is conditional for
start, stop and restart, but not for reload.

Just add an appropriate if statement, as per the attached patch.

[Julian - it might be good to add this to the distributed version when
you get back from your hols]
