Hello everyone!

I am having an odd issue with amverify and amrecover and am wondering if anyone can tell me why? Using 2.5.0b2 (upgraded from 2.4.2), the amdump seems to run fine, without any errors in the status e-mail, but I am getting some strange output when running amverify and amrecover.

These two issues have now been fixed! I am posting the solution to the list so that it hits the archive and can help others with the same issues.

Anthony,
