Issues:

MailScanner thinks it's 4.86.1, not 4.86.0
MailScanner Version Number is not updated in MailScanner.conf by install.sh.

A new /etc/default/MailScanner is installed, but the old
/etc/default/mailscanner is not removed. /etc/default/mailscanner is
referenced at least in

/etc/cron.hourly/mailscanner
/etc/cron.hourly/update_virus_scanners
/etc/cron.hourly/update_bad_phishing_sites
/etc/cron.daily/mailscanner
/etc/cron.daily/update_spamassassin
/etc/cron.daily/update_phishing_sites

New /etc/cron.hourly/MailScanner and /etc/cron.hourly/MailScanner files
are installed, but the old 'mailscanner' files are not removed resulting
in both being run.

I ended up manually editing /etc/default/MailScanner with my changes to
/etc/default/mailscanner, manually removing /etc/default/mailscanner,
/etc/cron.hourly/mailscanner and /etc/cron.daily/mailscanner and editing
the references to /etc/default/mailscanner everywhere I could find them.

I didn't try the ramdisk.

Other than the above cleanup things, it looks good.
