you don't - since an update to MailScanner would require updating the
configuration files as well - if you read their 'upgrade' docs...you
must run their scripts to update each machine unless you want to
distribute the same configuration file
(/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf)

that is the kind of thing that rpm or an overlay to rpm such as apt or
yum could never do
