Re: [cobalt-users] Mailscanner 4.25-14 on a Raq3



I have the following for mqueue in sendmail.cf:

# queue directory
O QueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue

And in MailScanner.conf, I have the following:

Incoming Queue Dir = /var/spool/mqueue

What I'm a little confused about is why did I have to do this based on the
how-to at http://www.uk2raq.com/raqfaq/raqfaqshow.php?faq=96:

   cd /var/spool
   mv /var/spool/mqueue.in/ /home/spool/
   ln -s ../../home/spool/mqueue.in /var/spool/mqueue.in

And the how-to at mailscanner
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/faq.shtml#17 states something
different:

mv /var/spool/mqueue/q*/* /var/spool/mqueue
rmdir /var/spool/mqueue/q*

So, which one is correct? Here is my mqueue and mqueue.in directories on my
Raq3:

ls -al /var/spool/mqueue
    /var/spool/mqueue -> ../../home/spool/mqueue

ls -al /var/spool/mqueue.in/
    dfCAA01034
    mqueue.in -> ../../home/spool/mqueue.in
    qfCAA01034

Should I have a mqueue.in/mqueue.in pointing to ../../home/spool/mqueue.in
(see above)?

ls -al /home/spool/mqueue/
    dfAAA21187
    mqueue.in -> mqueue.in/
    qfPAA05935

ls -al /home/spool/mqueue.in/
    dfCAA01034
    mqueue.in -> ../../home/spool/mqueue.in
    qfCAA03321


Thanks,

Robbert,

That's the how-to I followed but there are some errors in that how-to in
regards to the mqueue directory and coming mqueue/q*/* and I think that's
where my problem is.

There is a very good howto on the mailscanner site.
