EUREKA! was ALL_TRUSTED problems

[Richard Edge]

Many thanks to Glenn, Julian, Matt, Scott and others who helped me wrestle
with my ALL_TRUSTED problem which was actually a problem with mailscanner.cf
directives being ignored for some reason. While I did manage to resolve the
other errors I encountered with 'MailScanner --lint' it seemed like a good
idea to remove and install again from scratch. 

The problems are all now resolved after removal of MailScanner and
SpamAssassin and re-installing ver 4.50.15-1 on both gateways today. 

Thanks again and my apologies for generating so much traffic on this issue.

If you're on an RPM install/system, you'd better use cp (ro back them
up) and rpm -e (on the relevant package ... mailscanner, I'd imagine), to
keep the rpm database in sync with reality.
