MailScanner on secondary MX

[Nigel kendrick]

I'm running all my mail servers on CentOS (Two on Cento4 and Three on
Centos3.4) - no issues whatsoever with
PostFix+MailScanner+SpamAssassin+ClamAV+Razor. 

I had a few problems with SquirrelMail on CentOS4, but turning off SELinux
(as mentioned elsewhere) fixed that - you can also edit stuff to fix the
problems if you want to run with SELinux.

Have fun!

from what I see on the mailing list there's no obvious issues with 
Centos4 (might be worth having a search on the archives just in case my 
google like brain has dropped a bit or two ;-)

Dunno about the scripts, but rsync might help - depends on now much 
config you need to mess with. Rsync is quite efficient.
