upgrade_MailScanner_conf *reads* the ".rpmnew" file but doesn't write to 
it. If you follow the instructions you get when you run the command, it 
will generate a "MailScanner.new" file. This will copy over all your 
ruleset settings as well, for definite. You don't want to edit the 
.rpmnew file directly yourself, it's used as the template for the new 
MailScanner.new file which you then rename to MailScanner.conf as guided 
by the upgrade_MailScanner_conf script.

And don't forget its brother upgrade_languages_conf as well, there might 
be more added in there too!
