Scott my friend, if you link from A to B or from B to A is
immaterial... You can well have mailscanner.cf be a plain file and
link it from spam.assassin.prefs.conf ... The only risk you run is at
upgrades and such where things could become ... troubled, to say the
least:-).
So sure, it might be best to stick with the assumptions of the
install.sh script, but there's really nothing functionally hindering
you from doing it "backwards"... :)

And I wouldn't "tickle" Matt about this (Wouldn't want to bring the
Kettler to a boil:-)... He's the sole reason things are as they are
today;-).
