This is the same here again, however 2.41 is released now, it's easy to
install over your current setup.
(since you installed the ports version of MD 2.39, you can install the
source version of 2.41 and everything will work fine)
You didn't mention your perl version?  I installed 5.6.1 (hearing of many of
my favorite programs requiring this or newer).

Right now, just using the default version of Perl that comes with FreeBSD...Perl 5 I believe.



Being only 2 weeks into this project, I seem to understand clamd is a daemon
version of clamav.
With 2.4x of MIMEDefang, it uses multiple virus scanners if they are
installed, but does this apply to
clamav & clamd?  Will it use one if the other fails?  Hopefully someone else
can clear this bit up for both of us.

Right. Exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't sure exactly how MIMEDefang calls the AV scanner. For instance, does MIMEDefang call it on its own, or do you need to have CLAMD running already and then MIMEDefang uses the already running DAEMON to do its bidding...I'm unclear on that part.
Also, in regards to the mimedefang-filter file, is it necessary to edit the sections where the virus scanners are located? For example, do I need to rearrange the order of the scanners listed in order for MIMEDefang to use them correctly.


The configuring of the AV scanner has me some what confused, but once I understand the process, it should be pretty smooth sailing.

Once im comfortable with that, i'll move on to SpamAssassin.

I appreciate the help.

Jason
