Assuming you have Mailscanner integrated through sendmail, you need to tell scalix to filter via sendmail.

simply edit /var/opt/scalix/??/s/sys/smtpd.cfg

and add

SMTPFILTER=TRUE

above the relay lines. Save and quit, then restart the smtpd service.

omoff -d0 smtpd
omon smtpd

Now all mail should get filtered via sendmail, which is how mailscanner should be integrated.

thanx!

for some reason the server needed to be restarted to take effect of the changes... but it works perfectly!

thx for the help!
