The bug entry says that after zip file's arriving at clamd, it suddenly
dies and nothing can be retrieved thereafter. Clamav developer also
comfirms that this happens when MailFollowURLs is enabled.

Hello,

I talked to Edwin on #clamav channel. He says this is a rare-case and he 
thinks that it's a vulnerability rather than a security flaw.

Edwin, could you please inform us about important vulnerabilities/security 
flaws fixed in 0.93.1?

My best regards,
Eren
