I have just installed  Mailscanner 3.22-5 and Antivir Version 2.0.3 (H+BEDV
)  using sendmail and I am getting a couple of errors. According to the
mailscanner.conf file antivir is supported however when
Minimum Code Status is set to supported or beta or alpha i get the
following error

Jul 24 08:08:28  mailscanner[4064]: FATAL: *Please go and READ*
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/codestatus.shtml

and mailscanner exits


When Minimum Code Status is set to unsupported mailscanner scans the
message but the log reports the following :-

  Jul 24 08:13:54 mailscanner[4436]: Either you've found a bug in
MailScanner's AntiVir output parser, or AntiVir's output format has
changed! .....

This message is repeated for every line from the the output of antivir
listed below :-
