Correct. > The question I have is, how is the order of the filtering determined? Since version 0.53.2, they should be run in alphabetical order, based on the name of the socket that they create. > To do this, I should get python-filters to process a message before I > invoke the clamd filter.

You may need to modify pythonfilter or clamcour to change the name of the socket that they create. > My other option is to use python-filters' virus scanning, but from my > understanding, using clamd is far more efficient than using the > libraries, which appears to be the method in the python filters. That shouldn't be the case. Using clamd is far more efficient than using the command line scanner, since the latter has to parse and load all of the virus definitions into memory when it starts up. However, I would not expect any appreciable performance difference between clamcour and clamav via pythonfilter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
