Ok, I'm planning to upgrade simscan to 1.2 but only then it will become
a release. For now, inter7.com page claims that it's just a "new test
version of the upcoming 1.2 release". I don't want to put test versions
into fbsd ports tree :)
"--enable-custom-reject" is a cool feature but unfortunately it depends
on qmail port need to be patched with qmail-queue-custom-error.patch. If
garga@ will add this patch into qmail port, simscan port can be compiled with
such option.
