Sascha,

| no sulotion just the same problem with amavisd-new:
| 
| when sending 42.zip through amavisd-new I must wait for the timeout
| (timeout: 60). amavis tries this 3 times.
| but when scanning with scan_file processing stops after ca. 10s with
| loop_decompr_limit reached. many month ago I asked this on the
| amavis-user-ml, but no one answerd.

Don't know what version of amavisd-new are you running, but mail
bombs like 42.zip are normally detected directly by amavisd-new,
unless you have decoding disabled ($bypass_decode_parts=1).
