Kai,

I'm running the latest (RPM) version of SA - 3.2.4.  All of the perl SA 
modules look to be up-to-date, too.

I took a look at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpqamAssassin/Dns.pm 
line 371, which read "$total_waiting_time += $waiting_time".  Just for fun, I 
deleted the +, ran MS --lint, and the first error was gone.  However, I'm not 
sure if the "+=" isn't a valid construct, and what the consequences of my 
change would be (and so may just put back the +).

As to the second error, I see the line in Dns.pm, but have no idea what it 
does.  Googling has turned up little.

Dimitri
