Tagging the subject line of e-mail

[ash]

Did this ever get resolved?

I just upgraded from 4.21-9 to 4.23-10 and nolonger get any of the subject
line modifications notices that use the curly brackets, other than if I set
"Scanned Modify Subject" , for example any violation be it a virus ,bad file
name/type receives the subject line "Warning: E-mail viruses detected", I
haven't had a spam message yet to see if that notification has also stopped
working

from my conf file
Virus Modify Subject = yes
Virus Subject Text = {Virus?}
Filename Modify Subject = yes
Filename Subject Text = {Filename?}
Content Modify Subject = yes
Content Subject Text = {Dangerous Content?}
Spam Modify Subject = yes
Spam Subject Text = {Spam?}
High Scoring Spam Modify Subject = yes
High Scoring Spam Subject Text = {Spam?}

running perl 5.6.0

regards

ash
