messages with RAR attachment ending up in the error queue

as a continuation of thread
http://www.scalix.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=3468
the problem described in the abovementioned thread seem to be due to RAR file attachments, which causes the message (regardless of file size) to be place in the error queue.
anyone have any similar experiences?
using RHEL3 with Scalix 10.

responding to my own post..
this behavior stops if you disable ScanRAR in /etc/clamd.conf (disabled by default)..
however, i would like to be able to scan RAR archives that are version 2.0 (apparent licensing issues with 3.x+).
alternatively, how could i purchase licensing to allow clamd to scan any type of RAR archive? this does present a problem w potential viruses, while the alternative of not allowing RAR archives at all is also problematic..

is this what your clamd.conf says?
# Close the connection when the data size limit is exceeded.
# The value should match your MTA's limit for a maximal attachment size.
# Default: 10M
StreamMaxLength 20M
make sure that your rar or unrar actually works. Check the PATHS too on amavisd-milter or amavis

i'm not using amavisd.. using clamd and clamav-milter...
i have StreamMaxLength commented out, so i suppose the default 10M is used..
rar and unrar (version 3.51) works but anytime I uncomment ScanRAR it will not deliver messages with RAR attachments..
