Julian,

I cannot get mailscanner-4.25-6 to disarm anything (IFrame or Form): it
just blocks them.

I get the IFrame log but anything else than yes for Allow IFrame Tags or
Allow Form Tags block the message (and nothing is sent to the user
(me)).  My maillog confirms this.

BTW there is an ownership problem in my quarantine directory (I'm not
sure this is what you corrected with an earlier patch):
# l /quarantaine/autres/20031111/hABJaujx007429
total 8
-rw-r-----    1 root     root         1078 nov 11 14:36 message
-rw-r-----    1 virusck  virusck       162 nov 11 14:36 message3

The attachment (message3) is OK but the email itself (message) is not.

I'm running on RH 9 with perl-5.8.0-88.3.

Denis
