Re: [Declude.Virus] Feature request: DELETEVIRUSNAME

This is the crux of the issue that I would like to figure out. I am however under the impression that if you DELETE a message, Declude Virus never gets it.  I suspect that HOLD and MAILBOX are also that way.  I am unsure about ROUTETO, and that is what really matters to me. As far as savings of resources, it is apparently huge, especially for those running multiple virus scanners.  Virus scanning takes more CPU than all but the biggest JunkMail configs (things like custom filters with thousands of lines of BODY or ANYWHERE searches).  I know that on my system I Delete about 70% of all messages, ROUTETO about 10%, and deliver about 20%.  I would like to save on scanning what I would otherwise be deleting with JunkMail.

Wrong... if you block the messages on the servers: As we know usualy >50% of all incomming messages are spam. We know too that resource usage of one or two scan-engines is way above the entire spam filtering even if you use 5-6 external applications like sniffer, inv-uribl, spamchk, ... So if you're spam filters are set up properly they will filter out at least 50% of all incomming messages before they will reach the av-engines.
