Hello Lukas,
did you update an old mailscanner installation?
Not recently. I started using MailScanner about 4 years ago -- but
being subscribed to unstable, I regularly upgrade.
When I realized the difficulties, I did
apt-get remove --purge mailscanner
apt-get install mailscanner
and restored the /etc/MailScanner I have been adjusting over the years.
The problem could be reproduced on two independent unstable
installations (one setup on Dec. 27th, 2007, the other in January 2006).
Any idea -- besides going with the virgin /etc/MailScanner?
Thanks.
Lukas

The following error is reported when I attempt to start mailscanner:

failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript mailscanner, action "start" failed.
Does anybody know how to resolve this problem?
Is it related to the following debconf setting?
mailscanner/v3_upgrade: Don't upgrade
If so, how can I change that?
Thanks for any support
Kind regards,
Lukas
