I would like to add to this I have been having the exact same problems, I have tried all of the latest versions of the milter and all exhibit the same problem, I am running the milter with the following options to try and keep the email flowing.

No segfaults or error messages at all in the clamd.log. Clamd.log contains lots of "SelfCheck: Database status OK" messages but mostly contains entries for viruses that have been found. The errors I'm seeing, which I posted in a previous email, are all in the /var/log/maillog where sendmail and all the milters log their activity. -Steve _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
