Please find attached my revised port for FreeBSD (If it doesn't make  
it through mailman, you can download it from www.trunknetworks.com/downloads 
  )

I have this running on my mail gateways without problem, so there  
shouldn't be any issues. This won't make it (Yet!) into the ports tree  
officially as I have been delayed in contacting Jan-Peter to work out  
how to do this but I am back on it now, so I hope there may be some  
progress shortly (Remember that shortly in my terms is the life span  
of many Spam emails!).

In the mean time decompress this in the place of /usr/ports/mail/ 
mailscanner and upgrade/ install as normal.
