MailScanner stopped scanning

[Ed Bruce]

I've been reading various threads. Made a couple of changes, not really
paying attention, and noticed that at some point email is no longer
being scanned. So not really sure what I did to muck up my setup. I
basically did three things:

1. Installed caching-nameserver and started named daemon.
2. commented out dcc load module for spamassassin (I currently have
undone this change)
3. Used CPAN to upgrade a couple of modules

I'm running under Redhat AS 3, MS 4.54.6, Postfix and the queue is
getting larger and larger but nothing is getting scanned??? I've checked
the /var/spool/maillog and there are no errors. There are no errors in
the /var/log/messages. Any ideas of where I can look to figure out why
messages are no longer getting scanned?
