Hello,

I have a copy of Kaspersky AV for Linux mail servers, version 5.6,
installed on my gateway.  I can get amavisd-new to recognize the file
system scanner by adding the following to the amavisd-new config file,
as an application location:

/opt/kaspersky/kav4lms/bin/kav4lms-kavscanner

However, invoking this scanner is fairly expensive CPU and memory wise
and I'd much prefer to use the daemon version that this version of
Kaspersky ships with.  I am using Postfix as my MTA.  The problem is I
cannot find an easy way to get amavisd-new to utilize the Kaspersky
daemon, because the daemon itself is designed to operate in a pre or
post queue setup with Postfix, as a content filter and with mail being
reinjected back into the queue after the Kaspersky daemon scans it.
One solution would be to setup two content filters in Postfix; have
the first one forward to Kaspersky kavmd, then have that reinject back
into the queue, where a second content_filter would pass the message
onto amavisd-new, and then reinject the message into the queue for
final processing and delivery.  However, that means having Postfix
write the message out to disk at least twice and creates potentially
twice the load on the server.

So has anyone figured out a way to have amavisd-new interface directly
with kavmd, the Kaspersky AV mail daemon?

Thanks,
Kevin
