Hi Glen

Thanks so much for your help on this, but I'm at the give up stage on this
one and I expect you are too.  I installed your new wrapper and restarted
MailScanner at about 7pm last night and Panda worked for a bit.  Here's what
happened compared to Bitdefender:

Mar  9 22:10:52 mail MailScanner[29900]: Virus Scanning: Bitdefender found 1
infections
Mar  9 22:10:59 mail MailScanner[29900]: Virus Scanning: Panda found 2
infections
Mar  9 22:11:56 mail MailScanner[29968]: Virus Scanning: Bitdefender found 2
infections
Mar  9 22:12:12 mail MailScanner[29968]: Virus Scanning: Panda found 4
infections
Mar  9 22:24:33 mail MailScanner[29962]: Virus Scanning: Bitdefender found 1
infections
Mar  9 22:24:39 mail MailScanner[29962]: Virus Scanning: Panda found 2
infections

So far, so good.

However, today so far Bitdefender has found 44 infections whereas Panda
hasn't found any.  My guess is that something went wrong when MailScanner
restarted at midnight, but I could be wrong.  Note that Panda still finds
the eicar when I enter /usr/lib/MailScanner/panda-wrapper /usr /tmp
