Not at work atm, but IIRC there were two distinct anomalies vis-a-vis systemd... first There seemed to be a problem where systemctl status Mailscanner.service reported the process dead, altough it actually lived... Think that had something to do with it not detecting the restart behaviour of MS... Don't rightly remember what, if anything, I did about that (not at the terminal right now... ISTR verifying MailScanner init script could write the pid file and then things went much better:-), second at reboots, the order of startup was such that the network hadn't been started (sometimes), so Postfix as started by MailScanner failed... And possibly a failure for MS proper... But futzing the dependency for MailScanner.service (to just wait for network start) fixed that. No biggie, hence didn't take careful notes (not like the horrible trouble I had with SElinux, until I could stop it enforcing AND shut up in the logs via some careful policy creation:-).
