Hello,

I have built a binary of today's CVS HEAD and will run it. It survives
a quick test (test mail gos through, eicar is rejected).

A couple of thoughts after building it:

CVS HEAD does not build if
WITH_CONTENT_SCAN=yes
is not set:

exim.c:3639: error: 'malware_name' undeclared (first use in this function)
exim.c:3639: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
exim.c:3639: error: for each function it appears in.)

There is a new ugly warning with WITH_CONTENT_SCAN=yes
exim.c:3629: warning: implicit declaration of function 'malware_in_file'
