John,

There is a processing loop wherein all the scanners are called in succession. It is independent of vulnerability checking. This directive merely tells Declude to break out of the external virus scanner execution loop. If you use this directive to exit the scanning loop on virus detection and (1) you have 5 scanners listed in your cfg file and (2) a virus is detected by the first scanner listed, then the effect is exactly the same in processing as if you had a single scanner listed and a virus were detected by that single scanner.

A question about this new feature.

Am I correct in thinking that as soon as a scanner reports a virus, the next
scanner(s) in line will not be called and the message will be processed
accordingly, and that it will not be affected by Declude first finding a
banned attachment before having it scanned by a scanner?
