You can request such a test virus here: http://www.heise.de/security/dienste/emailcheck/demos/go.shtml?mail=mimet Even whit a second email scanner, using clamd, it is not filtered. So the problem is with clamAV, not with ASSP Matti -- Matti Haack - Hit Haack IT Service Gmbh Poltlbauer Weg 4, D-94036 Passau +49 851 50477-22 Fax: +49 851 50477-29 http://www.haack-it.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
