Andy,
AVG is not integrated with Declude JM, this is AVG reporting the name of the virus as spam. Now, something may have changed that AVG is now detecting spam in their signatures however we were not made aware of this by AVG I will look further into this. As much as we do appreciate your feedback which helps Identify such problems, in some things it may be more helpful to first approach <mailto:supp...@declude.com> supp...@declude.com or myself dbar...@declude.com before engaging everyone in the list, your assumptions of "PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED as part of Declude JunkMail not just "dumped" into the regular virus handling!" and " Declude MUST recognize that and NOT treat it like a virus" are rather harsh to be posting to without having all the facts to begin with. Thanks David Barker VP Operations Declude Your Email security is our business 978.499.2933 office 978.988.1311 fax <mailto:dbar...@declude.com> dbar...@declude.com From: supp...@declude.com [mailto:supp...@declude.com] On Behalf Of Andy Schmidt Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2010 10:39 AM To: declude.virus@declude.com Subject: [Declude.Virus] AVG reports "SPAM" as "VIRUS"! Importance: High Hi, For the past few days, I'm seeing AVG suddenly reporting a virus "SPAM": Virus Scanner Summary Report (Integrated AVG Scanner) Total Messages Processed: 19,499 Virus Infected Messages: 232 Percentage Infected: 1.19% VIRUS # INFECTED PERCENTAGE SPAM 232 1.19% resulting in these SMTP headers: X-Declude-Virus: Detected Spam [from IP 41.218.0.202 ([No Reverse DNS])]. and these reports: q061a000274936c02.smd AVG Reports VIRUS: Spam q061a000274936c02.smd File(s) are INFECTED [Spam: 7] q061a000274936c02.smd Scanned: CONTAINS A VIRUS [MIME: 1 424] q061a000274936c02.smd From: bloodiest...@rcbassociats.com To: elopre...@??????????? [incoming from 41.218.0.202] q061a000274936c02.smd Subject: Please attention! This causes a whole bunch of problems, e.g. a) I am unable to 'weigh' this "Spam" with other factors BEFORE it gets blocked. b) It bypasses the "WhiteList" feature (from the user's Webmail Contacts) c) It's treated like a "Virus", hundreds of the configured virus notices are being emailed, etc. While I'm certainly in favor of any additional SPAM detection - but then it needs to be PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED as part of Declude JunkMail not just "dumped" into the regular virus handling! If AVG reports to Declude the virus name "Spam", then Declude MUST recognize that and NOT treat it like a virus (or at least give us a config option NOT to.)
