Howdy list,

1.) I'm personally tired of notifying the sender of a virus
    that they've just sent a virus. Most viruses forge the
    sender address now-a-days, so I find myself updating my
    silent viruses list much more often than I'd like - and
    usually because I annoyed some innocent on the internet
    with a "you have a virus" notification.

    So, since silent viruses works as a Perl regex, why not
    just put a '.' in there and be done with it?


2.) I read somewhere that Qmail-Scanner version 1.20 now
    defaults to scanning for viruses and THEN checking
    quarantine-attachments.db.

    If this is true, then would it be possible to NOT send
    sender notifications for viruses, but still send sender
    notifications for items that get past the virus scanners
    but are caught by quarantine-attachments.db?

    The above would be ideal, IMO. My customers need to know
    when a clean attachment has been blocked, but I prefer
    that we don't spam innocent people every time we receive
    a virus.

Is the above possible without patching?
