What version of amavisd-new was that?  It sure seemed like to me that
amavisd-new 2.4.3 was converting every email to 8 bit mime, and I don't
have Net::Cmd 2.2.7 installed.  Amavisd-new version 2.4.5, the current
stable version, appears to work correctly in that regard.  I was just
wondering which was really the culprit, the perl module or amavisd-new. 
I would assume I can rule out all perl modules used by amavisd-new since
I only updated amavisd-new, and everything seems to be working as expected.
