Hi!

After upgrading to 4.36.7 today we suddenly stopped receiving mail.

Mail gets accepted by sendmail, MailScanner does spam checking and the
virusscan starts. Everything looks ok in the log but the mail just
dissappears.

Turning off virusscanning results inn mail being delivered again.

Inn MailScanner.conf we use the following settings:
Spam Actions = /etc/MailScanner/rules/spam.actions.conf
Non Spam Actions = /etc/MailScanner/rules/nonspam.actions.conf

After turning virusscanning on and setting these to store deliver and deliver
everything works.

In short:
Virus Scanning = yes
and
(Non) Spam Actions = files
results in no mail

Virus Scanning = yes
and
(Non) Spam Actions = store deliver
results in mail

Virus Scanning = no
and
(Non) Spam Actions = store deliver or files
results in mail

Im not good at explaining but I hope some of you understand.

Have I missed someting or is this a bug?

Mailscanner is running on RH3.
