Right off the top I need to ask you all to bear with me. I have not had to administer my email server in a number of years as I had another person doing it. Now, he has left and so here I am trying to make this work and at this point, no mail is flowing but the mail queue is growing.

I updated MailScanner and Clam/Spamassassin using Julian's install routines. All seemed to go OK but the mail queue seems to be stuck and I have a few errors when I lint the install. I know some other have had some issues with the mail queue after this upgrade but I am not sure it is the same issues here. I have been up all night trying to get this to work so I really could use some help with this.

Here is the output of MailScanner --lint

[root at rosewood ~]# MailScanner --lint

Checking version numbers...
Version number in MailScanner.conf (4.74.13) is correct.

Your envelope_sender_header in spam.assassin.prefs.conf is correct.
MailScanner setting GID to  (80)
MailScanner setting UID to  (80)

Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...

  ... obviously this one is an issue but not sure why it cannot access it.

  .... and then a bunch more of the preceeding errors

SpamAssassin reported an error.

MailScanner.conf says "Virus Scanners = clamd"

If any of your virus scanners (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.

I really could use some help here. Really need sleep but will have some clients yelling because they are not receiving email.

Thanks
