Hopefully not. Hopefully your mail server will examine the message while you still have the sending system on line and if your system detects a virus it will reject the message and leave it to the sending system to create the bounce. On way to achieve this if your MTA is Sendmail (tm) is to use a milter such as ClamAv's clamav-milter. I use J-Chkmail for my AV milter as it is also a very effective anti-spam filter and does not require Perl. dp ---------- I prefer to use clamsmtp(http://memberwebs.com/nielsen/software/clamsmtp/) which sits in front of my real smtp server as a proxy. When the data section of the message is sent, clamsmtp intercepts the data and scans it with clamav. This also might be easier if you aren't using a very popular email server(like me!) or want to make minimal changes to your existing setup. I have had very good luck with this software on my incoming smtp server and internal submission smtp server. --Bill _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
