DESCRIPTION
upgrade_MailScanner_conf helps automate the conversion of older
MailScanner.conf config files to the version of MailScanner you are
installing. This takes care of adding any new config items that need
to be added, removing old deprecated items and updating the comments,
unless you specify --keep-comments to signal you want your old comments
left.
OPTIONS
--keep-comments - tells the script to not update the comments that have
changed.
Using --keep-comments can cause you to not realize that there are
new/more options available to you for the item that your old comment
was kept with.
