Package: amavisd-new
Version: 2.10.1-2~deb8u1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
In going through the output of CRON scripts, it appears a syntax error in the
amavisd-new-cronjob script that runs daily generates spurious e-mails because
output is not properly redirected to /dev/null. I adjusted the syntax of the
script (patch included) which stopped the spurious e-mails.
Cheers,
J. Russell Woodman
