You must realize that there is an extreme amount of checking that goes on while running ./configure - that's to ensure all the components you *think* you have installed on your system actually work correctly. Once the components *that work 100%* are discovered, they are hard-wired into qmail-scanner-queue.pl. If all that code was moved into qmail-scanner-queue.pl, then what? Skip scanner if not found? What if no scanners are found? Should it error or deliver the mail anyway? What happens if a particular scanner is found - but it doesn't work correctly? Too many questions without well defined answers :-) Hope that explains things. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
