Hi Bellora, Could you please try this and see if the virus will be detected: formail -Y -s sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] < undetected NB: That way you will have sent the mail to yourself, hopefully. I am still stumped why the virus was not detected by the server! Wait a moment - I see I have a rule to let pass even malware when clamd is not available for some reason. Maybe this is what let the thing pass and that would be my fault! -Wash http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html -- +======================================================================+ |\ _,,,---,,_ | Odhiambo Washington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Zzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ | Wananchi Online Ltd. www.wananchi.com |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-'| Tel: +254 20 313985-9 +254 20 313922 '---''(_/--' `-'\_) | GSM: +254 722 743223 +254 733 744121 +======================================================================+ The advertisement is the most truthful part of a newspaper -- Thomas Jefferson _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
