Rick,
Thanks for the input. Where did you get the 0.90.2 version?
I went to bugzilla (Redhat's) after posting and found some references to
0.90 indicating problems. Supposedly that's why a newer version is not
up on the repo. See the following:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230075
I've been using 0.88.7 for quite a while, judging by the "DON'T PANIC"
warnings I've been seeing in the daily logwatch reports.
I just did a couple more tests, using the "Send Link" option from
Firefox. It seems that putting a blank line prior to the link avoids
the problem. Also tried konqueror (send URL option). Same issue the
URL is missing from the email after clamav(-milter) scans it.
