<pre>Package: mailscanner
Version: 4.25.14-2
After running Mailscanner against sendmail for a while, I noticed that the
messages that were being bounced because of their content and were
undeliverable ("Connection refused by host") were not being placed in the
mqueue, but were being held still in the mqueue.in, causing Mailscanner to
report 250 messages waiting in the queue (or similar), and probably
re-scanning the message every time it attempted to deliver the message.
Any thoughts? :)
I am running perl v5.8.2, on Linux 2.4.24 and using the unstable branch for
updates.
Thanks,
Chris.
