Hi there,

I just upgrade to the new MailScanner V4.14-9 and use the Sophos V3.68 for
virus scanning. The installation and upgrade do not have any error.

Today, I just install to use the SAVI Library, and edit the
MailScanner.conf for the "Virus Scanners = sophossavi".

When I try to start the MailScanner, it give out the error(repeatly) as
below:

Thus, it continue to generate some MailScanner Defunct processesb, can
anyone advise me how to solve this error?

Thank,
