/home/local/f-prot ./autoupdate
This gets you the latest virus definitions etc and keeps it all working
properly
then you have to go to
/etc/rc.d/init.d and do ./mailscanner restart to make it load up the new
definitions and restart sendmail.

If the server gets a traffic spike its always good to restart mailscanner as
sometimes the servers forgets it.

Or at least that's what I always do and it works on my raq4's :-)
