Rich

the above debug is fine - it's says you're not running an RPM based system
so it'll install inder /opt.

Now after that it sees both perls (system and ports) and as it' can't work
out which one to use it asks to run ./install.sh with the (non-symlinked)
path to the perl binary actually used. (have a look at /usr/bin/perl and
find out where it's actually going).

so you need to type something like the following in a ports perl example.

./install.sh --perl=/usr/local/bin/perl

then it''ll install in to /opt/MailScanner-4.78.15-1 (or similar). Then
you'll need to setup your MTA and MailScanner.conf by hand to route email
through MailScanner, finally creating a symlink from
/opt/mailscanner-<version> to /opt/MailScanner

Have a look at the install docs on the mail site and the wiki for your MTA
