{Disarmed} MailScanner processing email properly but is not delivering to outgoing queue

1) see if there's anything in the maillog...
2a) when you run in debug this wayyou need to stop mailscanner then run 'MailScanner', and it should dump debug to the screen.
2b) alternatively stop mailscanner and then run "MailScanner --debug --debug-sa" and you'll get the information that way without editing the MailScanner.conf


I presume you did the upgrade_MailScanner_conf when you did the upgrade?
