On their website they have a binary built for SUSE 9.3 and a source rpm. I looked at the source rpm, and the .spec file does list that dependancy. Maybe SUSE had perl-MIME-Base64 separate. Either way, one could download the source rpm and install it, edit the .spec to remove that dependancy, and "rpm -ba specfile" it again and test it. -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
