        The package works great once you get it set up.

        Marcelloc helped me a lot. Just trying to return the favor.

        Just any FYI.  If you are going to use active directory to extract your valid recipients.  You need to make sure you install p5-perl-ldap.

                I took a look at the mailscanner.conf and it appears the directories are created with 0600 with a user postfix?

                  Yes, maiscanner runs with postfix user.

                  chown ('/var/spool/postfix','postfix');

                        check if you have multiple perl version on your pfsense.

                        type pkg_info | grep -i perl on console/ssh

                          I did a fresh install of pfsense today and installed packages in the following order.  It looks like squid3 broke mailscanner for I was able to run mailscanner from command line until i installed squid.

                          Working Install
                          mailscanner-dev
                          Asterisk
                          postfix
                          squid3 – breaks it.

                            perhaps it's the perl-threaded-5.12.4_4 Practical Extraction and Report Languag package.
