It's interesting, as Jules just wrote this in the mailing just now:

******************
I want to keep it as simple as possible. Installing MailScanner is
already quite hard enough! If you have suggestions for how I could
make it simpler for the masses, please tell me. I'm hoping that
someone will start working with Dag soon to get MailScanner into his
archive in a form where one yum command will install/upgrade
MailScanner and all its requirements at one go.

I'm happy to help Dag with this too as I know MailScanner quite well (been
using it for years and have obtained all the necessary RPM's from Dag/Dries
over the years without letting MailScanner's install script override them).

But I won't have time for another week or two as I'm involved in two large
projects at the moment. When they're finished I'm happy to spend some time on
this.

Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be happy to advise via email if need be. 

What you think Dag?

Michael.
