Comment 11 Paul Howarth 2010-04-09 08:44:36 UTC
This issue is now resolved in all supported Fedora and EPEL releases, by spamass-milter-0.3.1-18.*.

The fix is based on upstream's proposed patch from https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?29136 but this patch has not been committed to upstream CVS, let alone becom epart of a new upstream release. However, I have tested it quite extensively myself and it is also included in Debian's update for this issue.
