[exim] Reminder: ClamAV 0.95 minimum from2010-04-15
Appologies for my last post. Apparently it went out entirely in Base64. NO
IDEA how that happened !!

Sorry about that. Here it is again.

More appologies to those who COULD read it the first time who now have to
put up with getting it again !

All the best

Phil
