Re: [Declude.Virus] Limit Size of message to be scanned?

[Scott Fisher]

I use skipext to bypass some of my larger file types: SKIPEXT  EPS SKIPEXT  GIF SKIPEXT  indd SKIPEXT  JPG SKIPEXT  JPEG SKIPEXT  MPG SKIPEXT  MPEG SKIPEXT  MOV SKIPEXT  P65 SKIPEXT  PMD SKIPEXT  PDF SKIPEXT  PSD SKIPEXT  QXD SKIPEXT  TIF SKIPEXT  TIFF   Of course by skipping these extensions (especially the jpeg and PDF) I do run a possible future risk, but it's a risk my CPU must take.   A skip by message size would be interesting. Say skip all zips over 1 MB? It might also get a SIZE parameter into the Junkmail side which would be nice. ----- Original Message ----- From: Grant Griffith To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 8:50 AM Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] Limit Size of message to be scanned? Yep, we had one client send a 50+ and 45+ at the same time.  That is about the same time the system locked up.  It is a Dual Pentium 3.6 processors with at least 2 gig of memory.  I would of hoped it could keep up, but seems to be a pattern this week whenever huge emails get sent thru the server, it locks up and needs rebooted to fix it.   How does anyone else handle this?  I would guess there would be a way to not scan messages over a certain size????   Thanks, Grant Griffith EI8HTLEGS, A Division of ETC (812)932-1000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Tolmachoff (Lists) Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 2:05 AM To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] Limit Size of message to be scanned?   50 MB e-mail attachments?   Youch!   John T eServices For You   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Grant Griffith Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 8:36 PM To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Subject: [Declude.Virus] Limit Size of message to be scanned?   Hello All,   Is there a way to limit the size of the message that Declude/F-Prot can scan?  We have some customers that are sending 50+ meg files and it is causing our servers to have major issues.  Is there a setting to say skip anything over a certain size?  Either in F-Prot or Declude?   We fixed it currently by setting it to OFF for certain domains, but really want to ban extensions and vulnerabilities for those domains .     Thanks, Grant Griffith EI8HTLEGS, A Division of ETC (812)932-1000
