Upon detecting a virus, I would like Mimedefang to quarantine the whole message, and send a message to the recipient (not sender) about this. However, if I call quarantine_entire_message('An email for you was quarantined'); from within filter_begin, the message in question doesn't actually get quarantined: in fact, what ends up in the quarantine is the warning message I wanted to generate. Even worse, the (test-)virus gets trough unscathed.
Read the mimedefang-filter man page really carefully.
Thanks. I have, and the part I missed is 'does not affect dispisition of the message'. So once I do a quarantine_entire_message I should then do a discard() to get rid of the virus. But how would I send the intended recipient a message that there's something in the quarantine in case he/she is interested?
In earlier versions of mimedefang you would only have to quarantine the infected 'part' and it was easy to replace it with a warning note. But quarantine_entire_message() works quite differently from quarantine() I have just learned, and I can't seem to find any function to turn the infected email into a warning for the recipients.
I would really appreciate another hint...
