That occurs when there is a malformed E-mail.  Specifically, there is not 
MIME boundary separator indicating the end of the E-mail.  This would occur 
if part of the E-mail was cut off.  This seems to happen occasionally with 
spam, and also happened with the "Anna" virus (which caused it to pass 
through at least one SMTP-based AV program successfully).  That message 
will only appear at LOGLEVEL HIGH or LOGLEVEL DEBUG.

[Declude.Virus] Strange log Entry

2001-12-03 Thread Steven Copeland

I see this type of log entry in my declude logs about 2 or 3 times a day.
Can someone shed some light on it for me?

that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing.  And what a
wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while
producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.
