You are correct again.  It is a part of SUSE's perl-5.8.8 package, and
mine IS the same version , 2.26, so that wasn't causing my problem in
this case.  It also helps me to understand that this had to be a bug in
the 2.4.3 version, as all that changed is it is now running 2.4.5, i.e.
Mar  4 11:30:23 jmorris amavis[4048]: starting.  /usr/sbin/amavisd at
jmorris.ho
me amavisd-new-2.4.5 (20070130), Unicode aware, LC_ALL="POSIX", and now,
even without the 8bitmime discard, emails are still going through to the
trouble domains through Exchange.  I decided to leave the 8bitmime
discard on at the office, where I have less control over what is sent,
but have removed it here at home, which I use as my test bed.

Understood.  Since I don't keep that up to date on the different perl
modules, this one did not affect me, though apparently amavisd-new 2.4.3
DOES convert every message to 8 bit somehow, and that is the default
version with 10.2.  It was an interesting problem to track down and I
learned a lot.

Perhaps that was when this bug was fixed.  I already filed a bug report,
so we'll see what is done.  I used to run 9.3 and I believe amavisd-new
2.3.3 in the office until a few weeks ago, which did not have that
problem.  So thanks much for your insights, they were very helpful in
tracking this to resolution.
