I've just downloaded the official 0.80 - and this problem is still present.
Did your patch miss the deadline?

I am due to release the next version of Qmail-Scanner, and I want
clamav-0.80 to be "officially" supported. But  this bug is triggering every
day on our network - and we're not even a big site, so I'm relutant to do so.

If 0.80 doesn't have this patch, then would it be appropriate for a content
filter like Qmail-Scanner to treat exit status 2 errors which contain "Bad
format or broken data ERROR" as being equivalent to exit status 0? (like
clamscan does already). If so, I'll put that in until the exit status issue
clears up in ClamAV 0.81 or whatever...

[I'm just concerned there are some other error conditions (e.g. out of
memory or permission problems) that could cause clamdscan to also exit
status 2 - and such a hack would end up passing on infected emails when it
shouldn't]

Thanks!
