Beta release 4.42.2

[Julian Field]

I have just released a new beta version 4.42.2.

Please download as usual from www.mailscanner.info.

The changes are:

* New Features and Improvements *
- Now automatically detects and warns if the "Incoming Work Directory"
   setting contains any links. It also corrects the path (but not in the
   MailScanner.conf file) and continues to work properly.
- Added support for Sophos 3.93.2. You must use the sophos-autoupdate
from
   this version if you want Sophos to work (both the sophos and
sophossavi
   scanner settings).
- Tar and RPM distribution installation scripts now look for gtar if GNU
   tar was not found, and is happy if /usr/local/bin/perl and /usr/
bin/perl
   point to the same place.
- SophosSAVI errors are detected as if they were viruses, and are not
   ignored.
- Panda support completely reimplemented a lot better by Rick Cooper.

* Fixes*
- Fixed problem that could cause harmless header files to be left in the
   temporary working directories when using Postfix.
- Fixed problem where attachment size checks were made on the
contents of
   zip files and not just the zip files themselves.
- Hopefully fixed problem with ClamAV missing Worm.Sober.P occasionally.
- No longer import missing whine method from MIME-tools.
- Fixed problems with incomplete reporting of viruses in zip files.
- Fixed problem with "Delete" MCP action not being logged in syslog.
