HI.

I am installing a new server following the MIMEDefang howto.

http://www.mickeyhill.com/mimedefang-howto/#s5

OS = Fedora Core 6 test3 (this is a test server, clean and minimal install).

Perl version 5.8.8


I had similar problems when I installed it on other redhat based systems (RHEL4, FC4, FC5),

and as far as I remember I did "force install Mail::Audit" eventually.

I would like to understand and solve this problem now.

I did try to send email to "simon at cpan.org" (maintainer of Mail::Audit) but got an NDR back.


I did not try yet to manually install it without using "cpan".


I did successfully install other perl modules needed for MD as mentioned in the HOWTO.


Here is the output of the command "cpan Mail::Audit".

My questions are:


Can you help me install it properly?

Should I use "force install"? Is it safe to use it?

Is this module really needed by MIMEDefang?


Thanks
