Have been using mailscanner with postfix for years with no problems..

I do believe it does not work with 7.3.  It does not start postfix as it did
in 6.8 and earlier versions. There may be other problems besides that as
well. 

Figured out it wasn't a firewall issue when I would telnet to localhost 25
and got connection refused. As soon as I started postfix manually, I could
connect.

Mail works now that it has been uninstalled and adding a few things from
last night that were posted.

I have setup clamav and spamassassin using this guide.

mails-from-viruses/

Seems to work.
