Hi Matthias


thanks for the warm welcome.

Maybe I am not well-formulated question, maybe my English was a bit poor.

I went to the script, and I've seen that use sendmail to deliver messages.

Why not use postfix instead of sendmail?

I write to the list of postfix and MailScanner respond that I can be  
the cause of my problem by making the message into a cycle.

and in turn refer them to the list of you to see a solution to the  
problem, as this gives me a faster change of MailScanner to Amavis.

What do I do?
