Hi

I have the same issue, I upgraded a machine that has bene working for over
2 years and even in debug mode all I get is:-

[root at bob ~]# service MailScanner restart && tail -f /var/log/maillog
Shutting down MailScanner daemons:
         MailScanner:                                      [  OK  ]
         incoming sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
         outgoing sendmail:                                [  OK  ]

         incoming sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
         outgoing sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
