Start failure due to Compress/Zlib.pm line 9

[Alex Neuman van der Hans]

Down because you don't want to run your mta by itself. Down because  
you ran a peel update that broke several things.

Update MailScanner, along with other relevant perl modules such as  
scalar::util, and do a --lint. Run your my by itself in the meantime.  
Disable yum updates.
