These problems have been fixed in version 0.1.16-2.1 for the current stable distribution (woody) and in version 0.2.15-1 for the unstable distribution (sid). The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected since it doesn't contain a masqmail package.
We recommend that you upgrade your masqmail package immediately.");
