In SweepViruses.pm swap over lines 1920 and 1921.
They should currently say:

  $logout =~ s/^.+\/(.+\/.+$)/\.\/$1/; # New
  MailScanner::Log::InfoLog($logout);

and you probably want

  MailScanner::Log::InfoLog($logout);
  $logout =~ s/^.+\/(.+\/.+$)/\.\/$1/; # New

instead.

 


Yes, that did it.  Thank you. 
In my copy of SweepViruses.pm it was lines 1902 and 1903.  I'm
running...

Will you be making the same change to the code base or is this a
modification that I will have to maintain?  I appreciate all of you
efforts.


No, don't worry, I've added it to the main code base.
