It's fixed!! (was Re: Setting spam assassin to capture viruses?)

[Dragoncrest]

         Well, I toyed with that procmail recipe a bit over the last two 
days and found out what was hosing up the works.  It had to do with 
something really quirky about my mail setup.  But either way it's 
fixed.  It now does everything I need it to.  I've also even modified it a 
slight bit so that it automatically takes all emails with qualifying 
attachments and throws them into a special virus folder.  Thanks for the 
help!!  :)
