Scott,

I really, really need to be careful about reading the how-to's.  Thanks for 
pointing out that it's spamassassin I need to patch.  Would the patch work on 
an rpm-based spamassassin  installation?

I have looked at http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/mcp/, but 
as to the mcp cf, it says to look at the sample.  The sample isn't that 
helpful to me (it's just me) - I was hoping to see a real-world example.  If 
someone would be kind enough to share an mcp cf or two that they actually 
have in place, I'd be most appreciative.

Dimitri
