Sender reports

I can't remember if I changed this line or not.  My line 163 in
SweepOther.pm says:

          my($allowdeny, $regexp, $usertext, $logtext)

Is that correct?

Mike

Well spotted. I had "$logtext" and "$usertext" the wrong way round in
line 163 of SweepOther.pm, if you want to fix it yourself. The fix will
be in the next release of V4. If that's the worst that is wrong with it
now, I'm pretty happy :-)
