    Is anybody successfully running MailScanner ? I have a tru64 5.1A cluster
    running sendmail-8.11.6 (patched) and I'd like to use MailScanner to pass
    mail through Sophos. I've installed MailScanner (version 4.21-9) and
    sophos according to directions. Sophos seems to be working OK if I run
    sweep against a directory, so I believe it to be installed OK. However,
    when I start MailScanner, it seems to start OK and does not give me any
    error messages, yet it never seems to process anything from the incoming
    mail queue, nor can I find any informational messages from it -- I just
    see one or two mailscanner processes and that's it. I tried to turn on
    debugging by setting debug = yes in the MailScanner.conf file and then I
    got this when I tried to run it:

    # ./check_mailscanner
    Starting MailScanner...
    In Debugging mode, not forking...
    Your vendor has not defined the Sys::Syslog macro _PATH_LOG at
    /usr/lib/perl-5.6.0/lib/5.6.0/alpha-dec_osf/Sys/Syslog.pm line 277.

    Thanks for any help,
