Search the list archives. Basically, you can split a virus into parts, none of which will trigger a signature-based scan. Unless the virus-scanner on the server reassembles the parts, it can't properly scan for viruses. If it *does* reassemle the parts, it's vulnerable to DoS attacks. message/partial was a huge mistake. -- David. _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
