RE: [cobalt-users] Pkgmaster.com sendmail pkg - ok on one, broke delivery on other

["Rick Ewart" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think it also depends on what version of Mailscanner you are using.
Michael Stauber (solarspeed) got me back up, but my Mailscanner was
sorta old - we upgraded to his package.

The MailScanner that is on my other box (the one that the update worked
fine on) is even older, so perhaps its something in the newer versions,
or a configuratino difference I am not aware of between the boxes. I did
install the mailscanner like 6 months apart from each other.

HTH.
