RE: [cobalt-users] mailscanner vs sendmail using dnsbl's

["Michele Neylon:: Blacknight Solutions" <michele@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That version of MailScanner is very very old. If you go to
http://www.mailscanner.info/ there are instructions on installing the latest

Installing SA and some of the other SA plugins would be advisable
