Bug Description

Binary package hint: mailscanner

When I install MailScanner 4.68.8, plus clamav 0.94.1, and i got "WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option" in the /var/log/mail.log

MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --unzip
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --jar
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --tar
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --tgz
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --deb
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --unrar
MailScanner[27897]: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option --max-ratio

when MailScanner invoked clamav. ... #ubuntu-motu->Scottk:"clamav doesn't support external scanners like used the --unrar option any more. Because of the licensing of the unrar code in clamav."

So I went in to /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf and set 'Unrar Command = ' and removed /usr/bin/unrar
I also when into /etc/MailSacner/wrapper/clamav-wrapper and commented out #ExtraScanOptions="$ExtraScanOptions

restarted mailscanner and sent a message, without any more WARNING message.

also #mailscanner->shortword: 4.72.5-1 has the fix for that particular issue

So I don't know what you guys want to do with this issue, but there is a issue going on.

Thanks,
~Russ
