I was on the clamav-virusdb mailing list at one time, but no longer. I recall getting daily email, regardless of whether I had submitted a sample that day or not, which means "Notify Me" has no effect. Also, that email contains absolutely no information to correlate with my virus submission that I could ever discern.
For example, yesterday... *Doc.Dropper.Agent-1400834 *Doc.Dropper.Agent-1400835 *Doc.Dropper.Agent-1400836, etc. This tells me nothing about whether my submission was received, whether it was a duplicate, whether it was even a virus, or whether they consider my submissions to be spam. If the clamav-virusdb mailing list is considered the result of "Notify Me" I would strongly suggest that the checkbox on the page be renamed "subscribe to virusdb mailing list", not "Notify Me". There are completely different expectations in the choice of wording. ...Chris > You must join the clamav-virusdb list in order to be notified.
