Ran the "Force Mailscanner Update" a second time and it finally worked. So Mailscanner is working again. Unfortunately still no idea why it failed in the first place or how to properly fix the problem. If any of the above methods were the proper solution one would expect them to work the f...

So tried "force mailscanner update" and still no luck... Interesting results from the install process: "Checking for multi-threaded Perl... (warning) Using Signals in a multi-thread perl application is unsupported by Sys::SigAction. Sys::SigAction is not Supported on multi-threaded pe...

Thanks Sarah, I've tried the /scripts/checkperlmodules more than 6 times now and still no luck. I was at an earlier version of the mailscanner and a few other CSF tools so did the upgrades to the latest versions and that hasn't helped. As there is no "force reinstall" in WHM I assume you m...

I have the exact same error so ran /scripts/checkperlmodules once and then tried to restart MailScanner but it still produced the exact same error. How many times did you run it before this worked? I have found mention that one should continue to run the script it it "runs clean"... whatev...

Thanks Sarah I did disable MS after it wouldn't restart but I need those 1141 e-mails to be delivered. So will need to get MS working again. I will what you suggest and let you know.

Why should I do this? And how exactly? I have made no changes to the system other than updating MSFE and WHM/cPanel. Why is MailScanner not working? Does it need this PerL module? If so this must be a new requirement as MS has worked without fail since it was installed over a year ago. So perhaps th...
