spamassassinprefsfile Error

[Randal, Phil]

Copy your existing MailScanner.conf somewhere safe and then run
 
  upgrade_MailScanner_conf 
 
and follow the instructions it prints on screen.
 
If the resultant MailScanner.conf is zero bytes long after doing that,
something's awry, co copy back your original MailScanner.conf and edit
it to delete the
 
  SpamAssassin Prefs File = /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf
 
line.
 
Then
 
  MailScanner --lint
 
to see what errors it picks up.
 
If OK, restart MailScanner in the normal manner.
 
Cheers,
 
Phil

It's likely that after running upgrade_MailScanner_conf  you forgot to
 
mv -f MailScanner.conf MailScanner.old
mv -f MailScanner.new  MailScanner.conf

The
 

SpamAssassin Prefs File = /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf
 
line in MailScanner.conf is now deprecated.

I'm getting the following error in my maillog.......
 
Feb 20 12:04:26 as MailScanner[12190]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus Scanner
version 4.50.15 starting... 
Feb 20 12:04:26 as MailScanner[12190]: Syntax error(s) in configuration
file: 
Feb 20 12:04:26 as MailScanner[12190]: Unrecognised keyword
"spamassassinprefsfile" at line 2078! 
Feb 20 12:04:26 as MailScanner[12190]: Aborting due to syntax errors in

auto-whitelist functionality... 
Feb 20 12:04:30 as MailScanner[12190]: Using locktype = flock 

Its the unrecognised keyword bit that confusing me as my line 2078 in my
MailScanner.conf is....
 
SpamAssassin Prefs File = /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf
 
Is this meaning that there is something worng with my spamassassin conf
file ? and no MailScanner.c! onf as the error is reporting ?
