We upgraded to from 4.20-3 to 4.24.11 today.
 
The following mail was picked up as having dangerous content:
 
Sep  1 17:10:27  MailScanner[18581]: Content Checks: Detected
HTML-specific exploits in h81GANmM026123
Sep  1 17:10:27  MailScanner[18581]: Saved infected "msg-18581-834.html"
to /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/20030901/h81GANmM026123

The file that was quarantined was not the original message but the in
fact the stored.content.message.txt
 
We have Quarantine Infections = yes & Quarantine Whole Message = no set
in the MailScanner.conf file.
 
Is this the behaviour we should expect?
 
Is it possible to have it so that dangerous content is quarantined &
infected attachments without having to quartine the entire message?
