I love quality bug reports with quality patches! Thank you very much, I have applied your patch in full, and you should see the changes in -43. Qmail was removed from testing for an RC bug that I have fixed, and a regression, but I am working on getting that repaired. This release should help in that regard. I have also made a couple more updates that should clear up some of those lintian errors. Thanks again! Jon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
