hi
i´m using clamav with amavisd-new on my mailserver. at the weekend clamav
crashed and amavisd new didn´t work anymore and over 3000 mails have been
queued. it uses clamav as primary internal virus scanner. i want to
reconfigure amavisd-new that it uses clamav as secondary scanner and will
continue working if clamav isn´t started. i just commented out the lines
below in the backup-av list in amavisd.conf:

...
### http://www.clamav.net/   - backs up clamd or Mail::ClamAV
 ['ClamAV-clamscan', 'clamscan',
   "--stdout --disable-summary -r --tempdir=$TEMPBASE {}",
   [0], qr/:.*\sFOUND$/, qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ],
...

amavisd-new doesn´t find clamav as secondary scanner.
i tried to use the entry in primary scanners section and copied it to the
backup-av section:

...
 ### http://www.clamav.net/
['ClamAV-clamd',
  \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock"],
  qr/\bOK$/, qr/\bFOUND$/,
  qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ],
...

when i shut down clamav then amavisd-new doesn´t work anymore. i have nod32
as primary av-scanner working and want clamav to be used as secondary
scanner. if clamav isn´t started then amavisd-new should continue its work.

how can i configure amavisd-new to use clamav as backup scanner?
thanks

regards
philippe
