After much heavy toiling in the jungles of Stockholm, I've made it home in
time to release 1.15! 

Download from http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net/ as usual. Let me know of
any problems.

Changes:

*       Support for perl 5.8.0! A one-char alteration made it all work 
        again. Thanks to Emerson Wu

*       Silent viruses configure option changed to default to "auto". 
        Older version didn't have this, which means that those relying
        on looking at the previous install of Q-S to tell them what the
        configuration options were should re-run ./configure without 
        the "--silent-viruses" option to reset their config correctly.

*       Cleaned up configure a bit.

*       made test_installation.sh to send spam message to test SpamAssassin
        if it's installed. Thanks to Michel Bouissou for these ideas

*       Added bugbear/tanatos to the exclude list along with klez.

*       Workaround for SpamAssassin bug where it doesn't report a spammy 
        message as spam when it marks it as such (i.e. SA 2.4X)

*       Added important new entry into quaratine-attachments.txt. Everyone
        should seriously consider adding this to their own copy as it will
        stop a potentially nasty future exploit. This does mean your site
        will basically block all "message/partial" MIME types from now on,
        but I've never seen anyone use them "in the wild" anyway, so it 
        should be low risk.

*       Updated HBDEV to handle newer versions

*       Changed AVP - Kaspersky regex to better match new engine. Thanks to 
        Thorsten Spaeth.

*       Comment in FAQ that sophie/trophie/other daemonized scanners should
        be run with larger than needed memory softlimits. Setting a
        higher limit reduces the likelyhood that (say) an
        automated pattern file update at 2am (that pushes up the memory
        requirements) suddenly make your Qmail-Scanner server
        start reporting out-of-memory errors! :-)

*       Strip illegal_chars out of headers when generating alert messages.
