Folks,

I have added support for changing the uid, gid and permissions on files and
directories within the quarantine area and "incoming work dir" temporary
files area.

I would appreciate it if people could try it out on their own favourite MTA
and confirm if it all works okay.

This release also includes the ClamAV parsing improvement from a couple of
days ago.

Download, as usual, from www.mailscanner.info.

ChangeLog is this:

7/11/2003 New in Version 4.25-6
===============================
* New Features and Improvements *
- Panda version 7.0 supported.
- Added dependency on Net::CIDR module so could add support for more ways of
   specifying IP ranges in rulesets. Can now do all of:
         152.78.
         /^152\.78/
         152.78.0.0/16
         152.78.0.0-152.78.255.255
- Added support for "disarm" option on all HTML tag detectors, which will
   disarm those tags while leaving the rest of the HTML intact.
- Added support for retrieving configuration from LDAP.
- Changed SpamAssassin timeout handler to kill processes and not process group.
- Added support for changing uid, gid and permissions of both Incoming Work
   Dir and Quarantine Dir.
- Improved ClamAV parser to handle errors printed when processing viruses
   containing corrupted zip files.

* Fixes*
- RPM distribution install.sh script now checks and creates pod2text properly.
- Fixed bug whereby the same message files could be deleted more than once,
   which could delete unprocessed messages using MTAs that name files after
   the inode and not the time.
