[Esa-l] Email Sanitizer hanging

[Dan Bongert]

I have the sanitizer running well under FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE, and it's doing
everything as advertised (except mangling HTML and Word filenames--my users
complained). The only problem I have with it is that every so often, perl runs
away and takes up as much CPU time as possible. This also happened with an
unmodified script, and I don't see how my changes might have caused any problem:

  MANGLE_EXTENSIONS=''
  #MANGLE_EXTENSIONS='html?|exe|com|cmd|bat|pif|sc[rt]|lnk|dll|ocx|do[ct]|xl[swt
]|p[po]t|rtf|vb[se]?|hta|p[lm]|sh[bs]|hlp|chm|eml|ws[cfh]|ad[ep]|jse?|md[abew]|m
s[ip]|reg|asd|cil'

Is my only change from the stock script.

Any one using the sanitizer under FreeBSD?
