Yup, those are the same as the instructions I followed.  I think it's the 
dual perl install that is the problem.

As far as I am aware I installed Time::HiRes with perl 5.8, but when I 
attempt to start MailScanner it pukes with:

MailScanner:       Can't locate Time/HiRes.pm in @INC (@INC 
contains: /usr/lib/MailScanner /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-
linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-
linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005 . /usr/lib/MailScanner) 
at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 65.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 65.

which makes me think it's trying to use /usr/bin/perl instead 
of /usr/local/bin/perl

How do I install MailScanner so it uses /usr/local/bin/perl ?
