What are the requirements for /usr/bin/perl rather than user/bin/suidperl?
I am running freebsd 4.7 with verion 1.21 with no problems at all, love it!
Before I upgrade how can I confirm that my system will work with
/usr/bin/perl?

My Perl information...
batt1# perl --version

This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for i386-freebsd

Subject: [Qmail-scanner-general][Qmail-scanner-announce] ANNOUNCE:
Qmail-Scanner v1.22 is out

Get it as usual from http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net/

This is mainly a cleanup release - fixing a few outstanding problems.
 
The biggest change is that Q-S has gone back to calling /usr/bin/perl
instead of /usr/bin/suidperl. This is to keep it in sync with perl - and
will probably break some installs on older servers (which was the original
reason /usr/bin/suidperl was used in the first place!). I'm afraid such
sites will have to upgrade perl :-(

The only new feature is "--log-crypto". Turning that on allows Qmail-Scanner
to log whether cryptography was used in a particular message (i.e. PGP,
S/MIME or password-protected zip files). This is probably only of interest
to the Qmail-Scanner sites in a commercial environment, and may have some
privacy implications - so be careful turning it on...

CHANGES contains:

*       Bug in uudecoding component fixed. Now will recognise a message
        as having uuencoded bits even if uudecode not installed. 
        Note: if you expect Q-S to unpack certain things (instead of 
        just detect them), make sure you have such unpackers 
        installed... (e.g. unzip, uudecode).
                      
*       New logging feature: "--log-crypto". More
        for the Corporate  environments. Simply notes in the log record 
        if the message contained any form of digital signing or encryption 
        (S/MIME, PGP and password protected ZIP files for now). Disabled by 
        default as your site may have privacy issues in turning this on...
     
*       reverted calling /usr/bin/suidperl back to the "official" way of
        doing suid perl: /usr/bin/perl
     
*       Standardized date timestamps in logs. There was a mix of formats -
        not too nice to see...
   
*       Fixed buglet where Q-S was replacing X-Spam-Level when it shouldn't
be
   
*       Removed RAV from list of supported AVs as Microsoft bought them out
an
        they have ceased development.
       
*       archive support was broken (fat-finger problem) - fixed.
       
*       Bug in how Q-S policed boundaries has been relaxed, given some
        bizarre but valid behaviour by Eudora.
        
*       Changed exit code check for sub-avp.
        
*       The locale is forced to "C" (English) at the beginning of Q-S.
        That will standardize the output of localized apps (such as AVs)
        so that the string regexes will work more reliably. Note that this 
        has nothing to do with the normal Q-S language support
              
              
*       If you have set $spamc_subject (which allows you to put a string at 
        the beginning of the Subject line when SPAM is found), then Q-S 
        now checks to see if that string is already present so as not to
        double-add it.

*       Added Danish locale - thanks to Max Andersen
