Has anyone tried MailScanner on CentOS 7?

[Jerry Benton]

You can test to see if a model is installed like this:

perldoc -l Sys::Hostname::Long

(That is a dash L)

Some models ship with Perl, so you may not see everything. You can get a complete list of disto packaged modules like this:

yum list|grep -i perl-

This is pretty much a total rewrite of the install scripts as I am having it leverage each distro's package management system rather than installing from source. It makes the management for everyone involved easier and ensures that the latest stable items are installed. I am doing tests for and gearing this towards CentOS and RHEL on 5,6,7. (And variants like Scientific.)
