Are you experiencing a problem that you think may be related to this debug line, or is it that you saw this line and then thought you had a problem?
True errors are reported via syslog with the "X-Qmail-Scanner...." process name.
PS: maybe that debug line needs a "this is not necessarily an error" added to the end of it to stop confusing people
This is definitly an error, but I just discovered that it may not be with qmail-scanner. After setting qmail-scanner to output debug messages, but not before, this error started popping up in my qmail-smtp log: "X-Antivirus-MYDOMAIN-1.25-st-qms: Process XXXXX closed, parent process died". I assume this means that the root of the problem lies in clamscan or how it is called. What doesn't make sense to me is that it works fine for most messages but not for others. I have searched the clamav site hi and low and cannot find anything even remotly close to this. I double checked permissions just to make sure, but I just don't get it, clamscan is working and catching viruses, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working all the time. I have attached the output from my qmail-smtp log for one of the failed sessions (piped through tai64nlocal). Any insight into this problem would be greatly appreciated.
The error is in the remote server, it probabily sendes BLFs <http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html>

Look at this log, qmail-smtp is closing the connection with an error
tcpserver: end 17593 status 256
before qmail-scanner sends the error to multilog
X-Antivirus-MYDOMAIN-1.25-st-qms: Process 17594 ...
So the remote server it is not working as it have to according to the rfc
