This is a duplicate message that I posted to the clamav list as well, so my appologies to those of you who've seen this more than once. A response on the clamav list indicated that some of the failed tests below should be caught by mimedefang itself (a pretty much vanilla config, using the supplied config file). Anyway, here's my original message. Any help is appreciated:
I've installed the following list of software on a machine running Solaris 8: Archive-Zip-1.09.tar.gz Compress-Zlib-1.32.tar.gz Convert-TNEF-0.17.tar.gz Convert-UUlib-1.0.tar.gz DB_File-1.807.tar.gz Digest-1.05.tar.gz Digest-HMAC-1.01.tar.gz Digest-MD5-2.33.tar.gz Digest-Nilsimsa-0.06.tar.gz Digest-SHA1-2.07.tar.gz File-Scan-0.78.tar.gz HTML-Parser-3.35.tar.gz HTML-Tagset-3.03.tar.gz IO-stringy-2.109.tar.gz MIME-Base64-2.23.tar.gz MIME-tools-5.411a-RP-Patched-02.tar.gz Mail-SpamAssassin-2.61.tar.gz MailTools-1.60.tar.gz Net-DNS-0.45.tar.gz Test-Harness-2.40.tar.gz Test-Simple-0.47.tar.gz Time-HiRes-1.54.tar.gz URI-1.29.tar.gz Unix-Syslog-0.100.tar.gz clamav-0.65.tar.gz gmp-4.1.2.tar.gz libnet-1.17.tar.gz mimedefang-2.39.tar.gz razor-agents-2.36.tar.gz sendmail.8.12.10.tar.gz Things seem to be going well, except that clamav doesn't seem to catch some virii. I was using http://www.testvirus.org/?co= and the following tests failed: Test #6: Eicar virus embedded within another MIME segment Test #11: Eicar virus within a ZIP file Test #13: Eicar virus sent in a Microsoft TNEF file (winmail.dat) Test #15: Eicar string in HTML, to ensure that your mail server scans HTML segments Test #18: Outlook 'Blank Folding' Vulnerability (does not include Eicar virus, but your mail server still must catch this) Test #19: Outlook 'Boundary Space Gap' Vulnerability (does not include Eicar virus, but your mail server still must catch this) Test #20: Outlook 'Long Boundary' Vulnerability (does not include Eicar virus, but your mail server still must catch this) I'm not overly surprised about the last three, but it seems like clamav should catch the first four. Are there additional pieces of software that I'm missing?
