Many thanks to all those who tested the revised A::Z (1.12_03) and
reported back.  I hope I replied to you each individually.

All the reports on the revised A::Z were positive (both about fixing that
test, and no new bugs being uncovered).  Ned Konz released it on CPAN as
version 1.13 yesterday afternoon (UK time).

I understand that Julian would like to migrate to version 1.13 of A::Z.
So it would be useful if some folk here in the MailScanner community could
try 1.13 (from CPAN) in the next few days.

Thanks.
