Mailscanner-4.28.6-1 and SPAM Actions= attachment deliver problems

[brichter]

Perl 5.6.0-12

It's a redhat 7.1 install.

I did not try any other options other then attachment deliver... I figured
if that was not working then stripping the html wouldnt matter at that
point :) So under your configuration you get any spam re-packaged as an
attachment succesfully. (And html stripped in your case)

What mail scanner version are you running currently?

Thanks for the help
