Mailscanner not scanning all emails

[Tony Spencer]

I'm all for doing things correctly but I had already tried the correct way
you mentioned but the make on Mail::ClamAV still gave an error.
In fact you were correct in that the install script had put the line into
/etc/ld.so.conf but was still looking in /usr/lib for the shared libraries.

It looks like the links won't disappear as I've run ldconfig a couple of
times and they have remained.

Is there an init script for MailScanner to stop and start it?

Tony

That is not the correct solution, but a slightly nasty hack workaround. 
It won't last, however, your system will rewrite all the soft links you 
have put in and remove them again. What you need to do is:
    1. Add the line "/usr/local/lib" to /etc/ld.so.conf.
    2. Run the "ldconfig" command.
That's what the latest version of my install-Clam-SA.tar.gz installation 
does.

I would advise you remove the links you have added and do steps 1 and 2 
above. You may well find your links will disappear when you run 
ldconfig, which is run every time you update any RPM containing shared 
library (*.so) files.
