Hi Martin,<br>
<br>
Thanks for this, sorry if I’m being stupid, but I’m using freebsd and I’ve
updated my port tree, however I don’t see the latest version in there –<br>

Can this be updated?<br>

<p>Indeed, the MailScanner port is getting a little out of date again. Yes it
should be periodically updated, but unfortunately the maintainer of the
MailScanner port is AWOL and doesn't respond to emails, meaning that the
MailScanner port is currently not being maintained.<br>
<br>
Maintaining FreeBSD ports requires a basic working knowledge of the ports
system and the program in question (MailScanner in this case), and of course,
the free time necessary to update and check the port works before submitting a
patch to the committers. Sadly, as of yet, no one with the free time/skills has
volunteered to help with this.<br>

Some did do an independant update for the FreeBSD port a while ago (see the
archives of this list). But in the mean-time if you want to keep up-to date and
esp with the beta's you'll need to use the generic tar.gz installer instead.<br clear="all">

<br><br></blockquote><div><br>Rich<br><br>the above debug is fine - it's says you're not running an RPM based system so it'll install inder /opt.<br><br>Now after that it sees both perls (system and ports) and as it' can't work out which one to use it asks to run ./install.sh with the (non-symlinked) path to the perl binary actually used. (have a look at /usr/bin/perl and find out where it's actually going).<br>
<br>so you need to type something like the following in a ports perl example.<br><br>./install.sh --perl=/usr/local/bin/perl<br><br>then it''ll install in to /opt/MailScanner-4.78.15-1 (or similar). Then you'll need to setup your MTA and MailScanner.conf by hand to route email through MailScanner, finally creating a symlink from /opt/mailscanner-<version> to /opt/MailScanner<br>
</div></div><br>Have a look at the install docs on the mail site and the wiki for your MTA<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Martin Hepworth<br>Oxford, UK<br>
