I am running a scheduled clamscan on the IMAP mail folders. The command is:

/usr/local/bin/clamscan -a --detect-pua=yes --no-summary --stdout --infected \
--recursive --allmatch --scan-mail=yes --scan-ole2=yes /home/HPRS/

This scan turns up the following:


/home/HPRS/dsmith/Maildir/.Sent 
Items/cur/1424639819.M717944P16540.mail,S=1444158,W=1463348:2,S: 
Win.Trojan.DarkKomet-5711346-0 FOUND

/home/HPRS/dsmith/Maildir/.Sent 
Items/cur/1424639819.M717944P16540.mail,S=1444158,W=1463348:2,S!...!(72)MAIL:SEC_deficiency_letter_to_Timbervest.pdf:
 Win.Trojan.DarkKomet-5711346-0 FOUND

This email has 4 .pdf attachments.  When I run clamscan manually on any of them
I get no infections:

$ clamscan --detect-pua=yes --scan-ole2=yes 2011.06.08\ Notification\ of\ 
Distribution.pdf
2011.06.08 Notification of Distribution.pdf: OK

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 5832752
Engine version: 0.99.2
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 1
Infected files: 0
Data scanned: 0.41 MB
Data read: 0.08 MB (ratio 5.20:1)
Time: 5.877 sec (0 m 5 s)

Why? This is making it difficult to determine if there is an actual problem.

This email is also from 2013, so unlikely it suddenly became infected.  I'm
assuming a new signature was added.  This "malware" (?) started being reported
Feburary 1st. 

I run freshclam twice a day.

Thanks --Mark
