MailScanner

[Derek Ragona]

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/
