It's during the clamAV/spamassassin install, not the MailScanner install
(which I mentioned above).  I know the discussion is the MailScanner
install, but knowing that Julian is usually pretty thorough I figured
I'd add that in on the off chance he'll be looking to improve both
scripts.

Obviously when installing spamassassin it's acceptable that one would
touch it's related config files...
