FWIW, I can confirm this behavior on Red Hat Linux 7.2 using MD 2.42 w/embedded
interpreter.  However, I DO see the following log entry in my maillog:

Jun  4 16:21:12 mx mimedefang-multiplexor: Cannot destroy and recreate a Perl
interpreter safely on this platform.  Filter rules will NOT be reread.

I just restart MD instead now...
