delivered....
 
Nothing in the logs other than the below...

When i run the /usr/sbin/check_mailscaner it says
 
stewy:/var/log# /usr/sbin/check_mailscanner
MailScanner running with pid 8146 8147
 
But when i watch the logs via tail -f i do not see any Mailscanner
activity until i restart by /etc/init.d/mailscanner restart
 
I am using MS 4.41.3-2 with postfix on debian 3.1
 
Any ideas?
