Hi,

I did reload Mailscanner.

I was aksing about stopping virus scanning at this stage but the real 
goal is to bypass all scanning for certain users as their mail needs to 
be scanned/quarantined etc. on a server that this server hands the mail 
over to.

So in reality I actually want to bypass all scanning for certain from or 
to addresses and just have Mailscanner take the mail in and pass it off 
to another server.

thanks
Rob
