It is a problem in Perl 5.8.7, which for some reason only surfaces on FreeBSD (but other similar Perl I/O artifacts only surface on Linux). Amavisd-new 2.3.2 just provides a workaround and ignores 'expected' I/O error condition fabricated by PerlIO. From 2.3.2 release notes: - ignore status EAGAIN when reading results on a pipe from a forked process; the status EAGAIN seems to be an artifact of Perl I/O on some installations; reported by several people to cause problems on FreeBSD with Perl 5.8.7 (but Perl 5.8.6 is fine); thanks to Bart Matterne for testing and feedback; Mark ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
