I had a similar problem.
MailScanner --lint helped.
It turned out that I accidentally messed up /tmp permissions...

Try MailScanner --lint, and MailScanner --debug.

Checking version numbers...
Version installed (4.79.11) does not match version stated in
MailScanner.conf file (4.57.6), you may want to run upgrade_MailScanner_conf
to ensure your MailScanner.conf file contains all the latest settings.

Unrar is not installed, it should be in /usr/bin/unrar.
This is required for RAR archives to be read to check
filenames and filetypes. Virus scanning is not affected.


Your envelope_sender_header in spam.assassin.prefs.conf is correct.
MailScanner setting GID to (107)
MailScanner setting UID to (104)

Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...

I have found clamav scanners installed, and will use them all by default.

If any of your virus scanners (clamav)
are not listed there, you should check that they are installed correctly
and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.
