Mailscanner 4.54.6 on FreeBSd 6.1 not working

[Marc Dufresne]

Didn;t know I had that option. What I did was downloaded the latest
install-Clam-SA.tar.gz from
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/files/4/install-Clam-SA.tar.gz


Ran the ./install.sh --perl=<path to perl>

adjusted path to pyzor and dcc in the mailscanner.cf, then ran 
/usr/local/sbin/MailScanner --lint

Read 711 hostnames from the phishing whitelist
Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...
Using SpamAssassin results cache
Connected to SpamAssassin cache database
SpamAssassin reported no errors.

MailScanner.conf says "Virus Scanners = clamav"
Found these virus scanners installed: clamavmodule

Looks good. Now for the moment of truth!!!! We'll let you know what
happens.

Did you run 'make config'  in that directory?
You may have missed the options to install spamassassin and clamav.
