Well, you can but I cannot answer, as I don't know :) I have just decided to host my server, and I thought of getting to it as quick as possible, and learn on the way. I choose a tutorial, http://koivi.com/exim4-config/ Also, now my setup works, thanks for the text at /usr/share/doc/clamav-daemon/README.Debian.gz At the tutorial I read, is said I need to paste the following into /etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/40_exim4-config_check_data # Reject messages that have serious MIME errors. # This calls the demime condition again, but it # will return cached results. deny message = Serious MIME defect detected ($demime_reason) demime = * condition = ${if >{$demime_errorlevel}{2}{1}{0}} # Reject file extensions used by worms. # Note that the extension list may be incomplete. deny message = This domain has a policy of not accepting certain types of attachments \ in mail as they may contain a virus. This mail has a file with a .$found_extension \ attachment and is not accepted. If you have a legitimate need to send \ this particular attachment, send it in a compressed archive, and it will \ then be forwarded to the recipient. demime = exe:com:vbs:bat:pif:scr # Reject messages containing malware. deny message = This message contains a virus ($malware_name) and has been rejected malware = * When I removed this, and pasted the following as per the Readme.DEBIAN suggest into the above mentioned config file, it started working.: deny message = This message contains a virus: ($malware_name) please scan yo ur system. demime = * malware = * The permissions settings you suggested earlier got rid of one error message, and the "deny message" changeover got rid of the remaining problems, so now my setup is finctional.
