Version 4.00 Spam Action rule file bug??

[Julian Field]

Try this patch for Message.pm. If it solves the problem it'll be in the
next V4 release.
And can I take this opportunity to thank all of you for helping me debug V4.
With about 100 configuration options, it's very hard for me to test *every*
combination :-(
