A little more detail is required here.

check /var/log/messages, /var/log/maillog

and see what is reported.

Also try a 'MailScanner --lint --debug' and see what that says. It might just be the perl issue.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply:
Here is the respose for 'MailScanner --lint --debug':

In pfSense I don't have any more logs in /var/log/messages, /var/log/maillog
Thank you

Are you sure postfix is even installed on the pfSense system? Most of the
logs seem to indicate it is'nt. If you're using another MTA, you should
configure Mailscanner accordingly.

Well here you go:

Could not read executable /usr/local/sbin/sendmail at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 2897
Error in line 33, file "/usr/local/sbin/sendmail" for sendmail does not exist (or can not be read) at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 3151
Could not read directory /var/spool/postfix/incoming at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 2874
Error in configuration file line 27, directory /var/spool/postfix/incoming for outqueuedir does not exist (or is not readable) at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 3238
File containing list of incoming queue dirs (/var/spool/postfix/hold) does not exist at /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Config.pm line 1819


What I can think of from the top of my head:
- No MTA installed ? (somewhat unlikely)
- Wrong MTA configured in MailScanner.conf ?
- Wrong MTA path configured in MailScanner.conf ?
- Running MS as a different user then the MTA ? This would lead to permission problems.

If you check your MailScanner.conf the MTA settings are at the start of the file. (for me anyways, I'm using the fully commented version)
You might have to customize the default settings to where pfense has its files.

Thanks for your help,
I needed to instal the package "postfix" before "MailScanner", didn't find that answer in any forum.
Thank you,
Best regards,Jorge Barosa
