I'm still unclear on this. If we're not using the new MIME ACL's, is
Scanmail safe to turn off? Your last post seemed to indicate that the
demime facility does unpack UUENCODED and TNEF attachments, but that the new
MIME ACL does not. Is this correct?

Either way, I'm not comfortable keeping it turned off, and will take a good
look at daemontools.
