Package: clamsmtp
Version: 1.4-0
Severity: serious
Tags: sarge fixed

The upstream version of clamsmtp, 1.4.1, fixed a bug critical to the
usability of the clamsmtp package.  The debian package (1.4.1-0) has
been in unstable for over 22 days and has had no further bugs
(including RC bugs) filed against it.  Please consider pushing this to
sarge.

Nielsen, the author of Clamsmtp, describes the problem in this post::

        I"ve released new point versions of ClamSMTP and ProxSMTP. The
        last ones had a nasty bug which in some cases resulted in dropped
        connections and garbage being sent to the recipient server.

        Apologies to all those who were inconvenienced. And thanks to
        those ones who pointed this problem out.

        Cheers,
        Nate

        If you were running ClamSMTP 1.4 and had a line in your
        configuration file like this (in other words added *no* scan
        header):

        Header:

        Users using the default configuration file, or who don"t have a
        line like the above in their configuration file are not affected.
