The rc startup script not longer functions as intended, as MailScanner 
has changed its process names to dynamically report current status.

#!/bin/sh

msbindir=/usr/local/libexec/MailScanner
process=MailScanner
config=/usr/local/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf
PIDFILE=/var/run/MailScanner.pid

start_ms()
{
    pid=`ps -axww |
         grep '[ ]'$msbindir/$process |
         awk '{print $1}'`                         
                                                   
    if [ "x$pid" = "x" ]; then                     
        # Quietly try to raise the open_files limit
        ulimit -n 2000 >/dev/null 2>&1             
        # Restart it                               
        PATH=${msbindir}:$PATH                     
        echo Starting MailScanner...               
        cd $msbindir                               
        $process $config                           
    else                                           
        echo MailScanner running with pid $pid     
    fi                                             
}

Therefore this method of identifying a running pid no longer works. I 
guess when a RCng startup script is implemented, this will not be a 
concern though.
