clamd and tnef error?

[Martin Hepworth]

Paul

1)make sure the clamav user can see all the way down to
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming.

2) see if using the intneral tnef expander works any better.


Also worth upgrading MS to latest. Don't see anything in the changelog for
4.80 or 4.81 specific to clamav handling but

(grumble windmail.dat is bad, all outleek users should be sending html
formatted emails not rft /grumble)
