Hi,  I was running 4.66.5 with no Issues.  Also using Mailwatch. System
is Centos 5.1. MTA is sendmail.  Sendmail runs fine on it's own without
MailScanner.

Output from --lint is :

Trying to setlogsock(unix)
Checking version numbers...
Version number in MailScanner.conf (4.67.6) is correct.

Unrar is not installed, it should be in /usr/bin/unrar.
This is required for RAR archives to be read to check
filenames and filetypes. Virus scanning is not affected.


ERROR: The "envelope_sender_header" in your spam.assassin.prefs.conf
ERROR: is not correct, it should match X-Kettle-MailScanner-From


Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...
SpamAssassin temp dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp
SpamAssassin reported no errors.
MailScanner.conf says "Virus Scanners = clamd"
Found these virus scanners installed: clamavmodule, clamd
===========================================================================
===========================================================================
Virus Scanner test reports:
Clamd said "eicar.com was infected: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND"

If any of your virus scanners (clamavmodule,clamd)
are not listed there, you should check that they are installed correctly
and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.

the --debug stops at subtests =
  and goes no futher
