AAAH! Ok I think I may have figured out a problem in my setup, in
MailScanner.conf I had 2 gateways with use spamassassin = &SQLnoScan and
one of them with = yes

I was trying to get the db working with mailwatch to enable users to
enter a spam score which affects their setup but I was obviously
distracted at some point and didn't change the setting back, apologies
for being dumb :o)

Ok that looks more consistent now - although I don't appear to have mcp
working, how do I check that mcp is working ok?
