It seems that qmailscanner deletes any existing X-Spam-Status and 
X-Spam-Flag-headers from the scanned email, so that these are ignored in 
case a spammer has put them there to fool useres of spamassassin. This is 
the expected behaviour, I guess.

However I've noticed that if an already spamassassin-scanned message 
(piped through spamassassin via procmail) contains, ie.:

<cut>
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.7 required=5.0
        tests=MSG_ID_ADDED_BY_MTA_3
        version=2.55
X-Spam-Level:
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp)
<cut>

and the email gets scanned again by spamassassin using qmail-scanner, then 
the existing X-Spam-Status -header gets deleted incerrectly, resulting 
in:

<cut>
        tests=MSG_ID_ADDED_BY_MTA_3
        version=2.55
X-Spam-Level:
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp)
<cut>

The lines starting with "tests=..." simply remains in the message, which 
confuses my mailklient's parsing of the surrounding headers.

I use qmail-scanner 1.15. From the changelog I can't see that the newest 
stable version (1.16) should alter the behavior in this particular 
situation.

Have I discovered a bug in qmail-scanner or in the configuration of my 
mailserver?
