different MTA, you must re-run AMaViS configuration, because the script
contains only the code for the MTA it was initially configured for.
The configuration steps to be taken for particular mail transport agent consist
of making small subtle changes in the related configuration files in order to
ensure
AMaViS can access the messages in the mail transport agent's queue
before they are processed further. As MTA configuration is specific for each
agent as well as for the particular administrator options and policies, it is not
covered in detail in this documentation.
If you experience any problems with integrating your mail transport agent and
AMaViS, refer to your mail transport agent documentation, and also to the
README.{MTA_name} file in the README_FILES subdirectory of the
AMaViS installation directory (the MTA_name stands for the name of your
mail transport agent). These README files contain detailed information and
configuration examples for all supported mail transport agents.

following Perl modules are needed:
o Time::HiRes
o DB_File
o Sys::Syslog
All of these modules are available for free at
http://www.cpan.org/. The usual
way of installing a new Perl module consists of unpacking the downloaded file,
switching into the unpacked directory, and running the following sequence of
commands as root:
# perl Makefile.PL
...
# make test
...
# make install
The
qmailqueue patch is needed in order to enable qmail to call a different
qmail-queue program than the one compiled by default. The patch
instructions and also the patching process details are presented at
http://www.qmail.org/qmailqueue-patch. Here is a direct example transcript
(according to the previous website) of the differences that have to be
