The vsifax documentation does not declare what the file is, but their
installation scripts try to execute the 'eula' file and and fails.  In
looking at the contents of the file it is not a simple script, but looks
like a binary executable file.  I tried to execute the file manually and
received the same error :

[root at MailIn install]# ./eula
-bash: ./eula: cannot execute binary file

The file is executable :
-rwxr-xr-x 1  227  105 374644 Apr 19  2007 eula

The file is not a script, The beginning of the file is :
