The 4.78.9 version is still listed as Beta according to the MailScanner site, though the site may just not have updated yet. Second, the patch submitted forces perl 5.10+ as a requirement. I've seen nothing on the MailScanner site that says that this is a requirement, and have had no problems myself using any of the Beta versions with perl 5.8.9_3. Given that upgrading perl is not something to be done lightly, I was wondering what issues people were seeing that 5.10 fixed. Thanks
