Hi there,

i am trying to use the latest Version of MailScanner on SuSE10.

Starting MailScanner does not really work:

rcMailScanner start

Jan 10 21:21:29 s23 sendmail-in[5024]: starting daemon (8.13.4): SMTP
Jan 10 21:21:29 s23 sendmail-client[5027]: starting daemon (8.13.4): 
persistent-queueing at 00:01:00
Jan 10 21:21:29 s23 sendmail-out[5031]: starting daemon (8.13.4): 
queueing at 00:30:00
Jan 10 21:21:29 s23 sendmail-out[5031]: unable to write pid to 
/var/run/sendmail.pid: file in use by another process
Jan 10 21:21:31 s23 MailScanner[5051]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus Scanner 
version 4.49.7 starting...

rcMailScanner stop

does kill MailScanner, but there is still an istance of sendmail.

The PID-File contains of the following:

5024
/usr/sbin/sendmail -OPrivacyOptions=noetrn -ODeliveryMode=queueonly 
-OQueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue.in -L sendmail-in -Am -bd -om


on a working system, the pid-file contains of this:

3310
/usr/sbin/sendmail -L sendmail-out -Am -q30m -om



i am running the following:

Sendmail:
