Hello!

I have a serios problem with my installed mailscanner. In the configuration
file I prohibit the passing of EXE and other filetypes. 
Sometimes it happens that, regardless of the configuration, these filetypes
are passing. It also has happened with virus infected files. 

I´m using Sendmail (Version 8.11.3), Mailscanner (Version 2.52) and Sophos
Virusscanner on a Suse 7.2 System.

I have discovered the following entrys in my mail-logfile:

Is it possible that sendmail gives two times the same message-ID? (In one of
the earlier Mails there was this problem, but with an older sendmail
version).
