Crap, I was too quick on that reply. The delivery was working because
MailScanner wasn't actually scanning the message.. now that it is, it's
back to it's old tricks.<br>
<br>
I've now tried both batch and queue delivery methods in
MailScanner.conf and that hasn't made a difference.<br>
<br>
I open a telnet session to the server and compose and queue a message
for user test.<br>

Why does the message only get delivered when I restart MailScanner? If
I don't /etc/init.d/MailScanner restart, the message just sits in
/var/spool/postfix/incoming<br>

Genius!<br>

It was set to batch, and after setting it to queue the message was
delivered right away. So, if I had sent _enough_ test messages the
batch would have delivered them, but because I was only sending a
couple at a time the delivery wasn't progressing.<br>
<br>
Thanks very much!<br>

I'm running into a problem where mail can be sent to a local recipient,
it's scanned, but it sits in /var/spool/postfix/incoming until I
'/etc/init.d/MailScanner restart' at which time the message is actually
delivered to /var/spool/mail/'local_recipient'
I'm at a loss why, I believe, postfix must be restarted in order to
deliver the mail.

Any chance of a log excerpt? What do you have in MailScanner.conf
regarding the delivery options, batch or queue? (You will find this
towards the bottom of the file).
