15 -20 minutes. But sorry, they are not error messages. They are
incoming messages waiteing to be processed by MS. Some mesages get
scanned, etc. But only a small number.

I have started using sophossavi this morning. Every now and then, I
get
the following in the maillog file:

Nov 22 11:37:26 mailscan MailScanner[29415]: SophosSAVI::ERROR:: Sweep
could not proceed, the file was corrupted (538)::
./iAMBZv9T029593/letterXYZ.doc
Nov 22 11:37:26 mailscan MailScanner[29415]: SophosSAVI::ERROR:: Sweep
could not proceed, the file was corrupted (538)::
./iAMBZv9T029593/msg-29415-30.txt
Nov 22 11:37:26 mailscan MailScanner[29415]: SophosSAVI::ERROR:: Sweep
could not proceed, the file was corrupted (538)::
./iAMBZx9T029606/msg-29415-18.txt
Nov 22 11:37:27 mailscan MailScanner[29415]: Virus Scanning:
SophosSAVI
found 3 infections

After a few minutes of starting MailScanner with sophossavi, messages
start accumulating in mqueue.in. They pile up there until I get very
nervous (>2000 messages), and restart MailScaner with the regullar
sophos. Sendmail looks OK when this happens.

using Sophos version 3.87, and SAVI perl module 0.25, MS 4.35.11.

Anything obvious comes to mind?
