Hi,

For some strange reasons, I've seen some malware go past my filters
on several occasions.
One such case is today, where a mail containing two attachments, one
a gif and the other a zip archive, skipped clamd completely and was
delivered to my inbox.

However, when I extract the attachment from the file and scan it with 
clamd, the worm is detected.

Either this is a failure of the configuration on my MTA, or in the
way clamd analyzes such e-mail. I am running 0.88.7.



The mail can be downloaded from here:

Perhaps I should zip it with a password??

...and here is what clamd says of the zip archive attached on the mail:

$ clamdscan Leonard.zip
/mailstore/home/wash/Leonard.zip: Worm.Bagle-14-zippwd FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 0.001 sec (0 m 0 s)
