Bug#401329: Mailscanner logrotate and crondaily scripts
I don't think mailscanners cron.daily or logrotate should do anything MTA specific. A better solution would be to change the exim installation manual, so exim handles /var/spool/exim like it should and another cron.daily script handles the manual created /var/spool/exim_x directory. I have appended a tar.gz file with a new README.exim4 and the necessary files. -- Regards Simon mailscanner_exim.tar.gz Description: Binary data

Please edit the file /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf according to
your needs. Then configure sendmail or exim for use with mailscanner.
After you are done you will have to edit /etc/default/mailscanner as
well. There you will have to set the variable run_mailscanner to 1,
and then type "/etc/init.d/mailscanner start" to start the mailscanner
