be coming from your amavisd.conf, probably as one of the decoders (or

Thanks for the hint. I did check the amavisd.conf several times but
couldn't locate any problem.=20
Trying the decoders i found out that i hadn't installed any lha but the
lha decoder was defined in the conf file. It looks like installing lha
did solve the problem.=20
