I installed the Message.pm patch Julian was so kind enough to send me to fix
the dumaru-y problem, but now I'm experiencing a new strangeness in
MailScanner. This message:

repeats over and over in the maillog. I tracked a little bit of it down to
the mqueue.in directory. Apparently, the message is scanned and quarantined,
but not delivered/deleted from the mqueue.in directory.

Anyone know why?

(Also, Julian, are the header features in the Message.pm script you sent me
included with the latest beta release of MailScanner?)
