That got it thanks!! I'm on MailScanner 4.56.7 and the code had an extra if for 
solaris and irix, etc.... So I just commented out the chunk and added back a 
single line eval with the native setlogsock. Restarted MailScanner and we are 
in business. [Apologizes to the others who tried to help but for whom I did not 
post complete info like my /etc/hosts stuff or state that only MailScanner was 
logging wrong.]
