First, happy new year to all of you. 

I got MailScanner v.4.53.8. and mailscanner-mrtg and both work well, except
i got some ugly output in my log file : 

Jan  2 16:40:04 califw3 MailScanner-MRTG[25016]: ERROR: Quarantine Directory
not specified in /etc/MailScanner/mailscanner-mrtg.conf - Skipping
quarantine Jan  2 16:40:04 califw3 MailScanner-MRTG[25016]: Unable to find a
mountpoint for /var/spool.  Please set Spool Directory in
mailscanner-mrtg.conf to a valid mountpoint.  You can see a list of
mointpoints on your system by using the df command.
Jan  2 16:40:04 califw3 MailScanner-MRTG[25016]: Unable to find a mountpoint
for /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming.  Please set MailScanner Work Directory
in mailscanner-mrtg.conf to a valid mountpoint.  You can see a list of
mointpoints on your system by using the df command

I think this is more a mailscanner-mrtg issue, but I just hope some of you
are also using mailscanner-mrtg and already fixed this problem.

Thanks !

Set these parameters in your mailscanner-mrtg.conf file and all should be
fine:

MailScanner Work Directory = /var
Spool Directory = /var

It just wants the "mount point" to the root of the file system (/) which is
/var. If your /var/directory was on the same partitions as /, then you could
get away with listing the full directory path.
