MailScanner v5.0.3-7 upgrade install

[Jerry Benton]

Yes, the code to start and stop MTA’s have been removed in v5.
MailScanner changes do not equate to MTA changes so it makes no sense
to start/stop/restart the MTA. They are different services. It makes
about as much sense as it would for MailScanner to restart your virus
scanner services.

Each MTA comes with it own service management scripts. i.e..

service sendmail restart
service postfix restart
service exim restart
