After sending my last response, I started wondering why the missing Convert::BinHex module was not an issue for amavisd-new until after the upgrade from v2.6.2 to v2.6.3-rc2, if "not used directly by amavisd", as you state above? SpamAssassin v3.2.5 was running both before and after the amavisd-new upgrade, so the only thing that changed was amavisd-new. Just curious... Thanks!
