I found the problem:

Jan 10 11:44:13 mail mailscanner[16731]: Cannot parse
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/16Ol6z-0004Sa-00.header and
/var/spool/exim_incoming/input/16Ol6z-0004Sa-00-D, Can't locate

Perl can't find NBit.pm. The default module config put it in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/MIME/Decoder/NBit.pm

I tried placing a link to NBit.pm from
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i586-linux  but that didn't work. Is there
some where else to adjust to get perl or MailScanner to find NBit.pm?

Thanks,
Stephen
