What I have observed is that when the exiscan patch blows chunks, a copy is saved in the scan/ directory. However, this is not a lost email - it it an incoming email that failed to make it past one of the scanners, and has never been 2xx accepted for delivery after that DATA phase. It would of course be ideal if the exiscan patch cleaned up completely, but it is usually an external scanner blowup at the root of it, so I have never reported it against exiscan. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
