- backup the custom start script in /etc/init.d
- backup everything in /etc/MailScanner and MOVE IT OUT (ancient conf may not
work very well with modern versions)
- do a 'normal' install of the rpm version, it compiles the rpms on the box
so you will have some wiating time, but at least everythign gets registered
as it should
- check the start script, and replace it with your saved one if neccesary
- reconfigure the main conf from scratch
- put back custom word lists, or white lists where they came from.
