Problem starting MailScanner due to missing pm module

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

Hi there --

It turns out what I needed to do was remove the existing MailScanner package,
and then download and install
the newest version along with the easy install package of clamav and
spamassassin. Thanks to all for the 
feedback on that.

As a followup: I went to the MailScanner.conf file, located in the
/etc/MailScanner directory, to verify that 
it is using spamassassin. Previously there was a line within the file that had
the syntax:

"use spamassassin = yes"

However, when I look now, there is no line with that syntax in the file. Is this
by design, or do I need
to add a line with that syntax to the file, and subsequently restart
MailScanner?

Thanks.

I'd check the install,  I was under the impression the two installers
were separate
