JES MS 6.2 and Symantec Brightmail 6.0.1

Question

We are trying to get Brightmail version 6.0.1 working on Solaris 9 with MS 6.2. Brightmail is on the same server as the MTA is running on. It doesn't look like mail is bring processed by Brightmail, when I send test messages through the MTA the counters on the Brightmail web admin stats page do not increment, nor do I see any information in the bmserver_log file...
Here is snippet from the imta.cnf file:
! tcp_local
tcp_local master_debug slave_debug smtp mx single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel identnonelimited subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth missingrecipientpolicy 0 destinationspamfilter1optin spam,virus sourcespamfilter1optin spam,virus

! tcp_intranet

tcp_intranet-daemon
Here is the spamfilter stuff from option.dat:
Spamfilter1_config_file=/opt/Symantec/sbas/Scanner/etc/bmiconfig.xml
Spamfilter1_library=/opt/Symantec/sbas/Scanner/lib/libbmiclient.so
Spamfilter1_null_action=data:,addtag "[SPAM]";
Spamfilter1_string_action=data:,addtag "[SPAM]";
Spamfilter1_verdict_virus=data:,discard
One thing is the actual library file in the lib file is named libbmiclient.so.1, though Sun docs say to use libbmiclient.so.
Help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Bill,
I am running BM 6.0.1 on fully patched Solaris 9, with JES 2005Q1 MS 6.2-1 (patch 1). We are able to send email through the MTA now, but the BM scanner is not incrementing as mail passes through the MTA. Here is our current configuration:

we are running the JES MTA as mailwall:bmi user:group too.
Here is the output of CRLE:

I tried to use your config, with sourcebrightmailoptin spam,virus as well as the option.dat settings for spamfilter_library..ect...still no go..
Thanks for your help!
