And while you're at it, how about the ability to stop MailScanner
without stopping the MTA - which can be useful during a MS upgrade.
The options would then be:
- start / stop / restart / reload
- startms / stopms
- startmta / stopmta
[i.e. start/stop both in and out, or for single-MTA configs]
- startin / startout / stopin / stopout
Conceivably someone might want to restart or reload just MailScanner or
just the MTA, but adding options for those is probably overkill!
It would also be nice to further sanitise the output so that it no
longer issues messages about incoming and outgoing at all for
single-postfix configs.
Which reminds me - the MailScanner rpm also assumes sendmail as a
default, and spits out spurious warnings when using postfix (and
presumably also when using exim or qmail). Hardly a problem, but it
might be nice to sanitise that too.
