L.S.,
Whenever I start MailScanner it takes a very long time to initialize. I
can see it does some initial checks, like a lintlite and ms-peek to all
work directories, but that takes a very long time, on average 8 minutes:
$> time systemctl start mailscanner
systemctl start mailscanner 0.01s user 0.02s system 0% cpu 8:47.38 total
In my humble opinion, this is not normal. Can anyone help ?
Here's some extra info:
