Debugging Sendmail, WAS: How do I set Mailscanner to not use MSP?

Sorry to reopen this thread, but after some more digging and some help
from the link provided by Gary, I realized that Mailscanner is using the
submit.cf for incoming sendmail. I would rather use the sendmail.cf file
for both Sendmail processes. How would I go about getting Mailscanner to
use the same config file for both processes. I noticed in the MailScanner
init script, under the incoming sendmail function, that the second call
to Sendmail is as follows:

    $SENDMAIL -L sm-msp-queue -Ac -q15m -OPidFile=$SMPID 2>/dev/null

I'm not sure what the -Ac does, I can't find a description for that
argument anywhere. Is this the one that uses submit.cf? Thanks for any
help.

Ok, Well thank you for looking. I wasn't sure what program this issue
was with. But since it isn't a MailScanner issue then I will look
elsewhere. Thank you again.

 This is definitely not a MailScanner issue but a Sendmail one and I am
    

 not your man for Sendmail I'm afraid :-( . I will have to bow out
gracefully but I am sure some one with some Sendmail experience can
help.

Sorry
