Was this an update or a fresh install? If the former, I suspect you
forgot to run upgrade_MailScanner_conf (just run it wothout any
arguments to get some intructions on how to use it). If not, then
well... Try just commenting that line out. ISTR that one "going out
the window" some versions back. Use
MailScanner --lint
and
MailScanner --changed
as well as
MailScanner --debug
to determine that all is well (after appropriate changes:-).
