Mailscanner sends out infected mails

[Desai, Jason]

Do you have any symbolic links in the Incoming Work Dir
(/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming)?  Make sure to use the absolute path.

Julian, since this misconfiguration is both dangerous and common, can
MailScanner at start up determine the absolute path, and use that instead?
