MailScanner v5 Beta Available

[Wolfgang Baudler]

Tried to install on a fully patched RHEL6.7 system that already had
MailScanner 4.85 installed (so, attempting an upgrade) and the install.sh
script bailed out with this error:

> Some items to note:
>
> - /etc/MailScanner/defaults replaced /etc/sysconfig/mailscanner and
> /etc/default/mailscanner across all platforms including NIX*
> - NIX: the startup script is /var/lib/MailScanner/init/ms-int (also across
> all platforms)
> - NIX: no more /opt directory
> - ?service mailscanner start? is now lower case across all platforms
> - ls /usr/sbin/ms-* to see all of the executables
> - /usr/sbin/MailScanner is still the main program
