Thx be 4

If I choise no 1 options of couse I must kill qmail parent process 
that's impossible :-), Options no 2 maybe I choise but how..? I only
change qmail-queue to qmail-queue-real then I copy
/usr/local/sbin/amavis to /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue that all.
when I recofiguration with old config..zombie appeare.
Have any suggestion for this case? maybe you've experience with amavis
perl + qmail.

TIA
