This page is at best a very rough guide to the potential efforts to get MailScanner included in Fedora. While MailScanner itself is relatively simple, there are a number of dependencies and add-on modules that may involve significant work.

List of MailScanner RPMs Required and their Status Within Fedora - (Date last edited - 12/07/13)
We will aim at Rawhide as MORE & MORE packages are being splited from perl main or vice versa.
- The package is not in Fedora- Pass - The package is bundled in other package
- The package is being prepared
- Maybe some modified things existed
- The package is present in Fedora

MailScanner-4.84.6-1.tar.gz | |
The mailscanner rpm contains prepackaged scripts. In Fedora this needs to be repackaged to include documentation and any additional scripts. | |
