Hello all,

Over the past two weeks or so, after an update to almost the latest (
have not installed the very last release yet ) I have started to see the
following in my log reports:

    Your spam actions "/etc/mailscanner/rules/spamoptions.rules" looks
like a filename. If this is a ruleset filename, it must end in .rule or
.rules : 16 Time(s)

This is odd because my rules file is named properly and in the right
place. Can anyone shed some light on this? My box is a CentOS4 box,
sendmail and the following:
