Depends on what MTA you are using. On my servers I use sendmail as the MTA. In /etc/rc.conf I have these variables set:
mta_type="sendmail"
mailscanner_enable="YES"

I only need MailScanner started at boot from the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
in addition to starting Sendmail. If you are using a different mta, you may need some variables set in the mta startup script also in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/

i think derek ragonas reply touches on that.. im having trouble getting both
the mta and sendmail started automatcially, and was hoping you have had
better luck.

so your saying you can get them to start unattended?

Friend,

Sure that I use sendmail as my MTA. in rc.conf I try to put all start up
files of mailscanner before sendmail but after boot its still not
successfull load sendmail with mailscanner untill I stop sendmail and then
I stop mailscanner and start it again. after I start mailscanner my
sendmail is automaticly started. but I wonder why its not work at boot
time?

Now I have use my MTA to relay mail for some domain but I am unable to
delete spam email using mailscanner. Because mailscanner just lable spamed
email and change its subject to spam? any configuration needed to delete
all spamed email without receive it?
