Just attempted a trial with clamav-0.75 here are the results:

clamscan --mbox *
Notification: OK
Virus-Sample.070104: OK
VirusSample.072504: OK
VirusSample2.txt: Worm.SomeFool.Gen-1 FOUND
VirusSample3.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND
VirusSample.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND
Work/msg-12403-1.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 21517
Scanned directories: 1
Scanned files: 7
Infected files: 4
Data scanned: 0.27 MB
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 2.877 sec (0 m 2 s)


While when the latest development snapshot detects more with:

clamscan --mbox *
Notification: OK
Virus-Sample.070104: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND
VirusSample.072504: OK
VirusSample2.txt: Worm.SomeFool.Gen-1 FOUND
VirusSample3.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND
VirusSample.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND
Work/msg-12403-1.txt: Worm.SomeFool.P FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 21517
Scanned directories: 1
Scanned files: 7
Infected files: 5
Data scanned: 0.30 MB
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 1.862 sec (0 m 1 s)


It would appear that the 0.75 release still does not detect the Virus in the embedded attachment format. Was this by design?
