Ummm, I'm not sure which file you're referring to...

We have a directory tree (/opt/york) which is purely on locally attached 
disk:

 *  When I installed the system I built new versions of Perl, BerkeleyDB,
    etc to just go into/use /opt/york

 *  Sophos is also installed directly into /opt/york; there are no symlinks
    via the NFS-mounted /usr/local

 *  Similarly MailScanner is installed directly into /opt/york; there are
    no symlinks via /usr/local

I carefully went through all the MailScanner scripts and changed references 
to /usr/local/... to /opt/york/... in (I think!) every relevant location. 
I've been using 'find' and 'grep' most of the afternoon to try and track 
down any I missed but to no avail.

My head hurts.

Cheers,
Mike B-}
