Hi Mathias,
I take /etc/cron.d/mailscanner (and its equivalent upstream) to be a
respawn mechanism: If the service ceases to function, the periodic respawn
starts it up again.
The upstream init.d script and cron respawn script use a lockfile
Mailscanner.off, but this is missing in the Debian version.
The lockfile enables the least surprise behaviour of when I (the admin)
stops the service, it stays stopped. Or when I change to a runlevel in
which the service is not stopped, it stays stopped. And so on ...
Clearly I could abuse the $run_mailscanner /etc/default variable to
get this effect, but the default behaviour would still wrong.
I attach an (untested!) patch against 4.41.3-2 which attempts to simply
reinstate this mechanism.
Please consider fixing this in future sarge point releases.
Regards,
Paddy
