files in SpamAssassin-Temp

[Steve Campbell]

Richard,

I eventually turned off TNEF expansion. Neither way seemed to work 
consistently.

I saw those type of files you mentioned in my 
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/Spamassassin-Temp directory until I 
turned off TNEF. I'm still not sure why those other files named 
MailScanner.xXXxxx are being left behind. Seems they are purely MS/SA 
related (not TNEF)
