This is a bug in qmail-scanner 1.15 that chokes on any largish
attachments, not just pdf. here's a quick patch that fixes the problem,
along with credit to the author (I posted this here a few weeks ago, but
here it goes again):
-------------------------------------------
Basically, as of QS 1.15 (I think) Jason decided he wasn't going to
trust the return value from spamassassin, as there have been a number
of versions that don't work properly, so QS checks the values and marks
the mail as spam itself.
Unfortunately the test that is used is score >= threshold, which is true
if they are both zero, which is the default case, as they both get set to
zero if there are any problems, or if the scanning is skipped because the
file is too big.
I have attached the patch that I use that specifically checks for score
and threshold = 0. This should only cause a problem if you have set your
threshold to 0.
The relevant line is below.
- if ($sa_max > $sa_score) {
+ if (($sa_max > $sa_score) || ($sa_max == 0 && $sa_score == 0)) {
Hope this helps.

BTW, qmail-scanner 1.16 will have this fixed, we've been told...
