It appears to me that when clamav detects a virus and simscan rejects it, the logs appear to indicate that the message was delivered. At least they appear normal.

I sent the eicar virus signature to a toaster, and it said the following
smtp log:

Looks like the message was accepted. However, it bounced with this message:
Remote host said: 554 invalid message content  (#5.3.2)

I suppose that this might be considered proper behavior, but it falls short of what I'd expect.

1) simscan gives no indication of a virus rejection. I understand that simscan logging improvements are being considered by inter7

2) clamd's log says that eicar_com.zip is OK??? I'd certainly expect to see something other than OK.

3) According to the simscan README file, it is possible to configure simscan (at compile time) to return the name of the virus in the rejection message. Any idea why the toaster isn't doing this?

I'm a little surprised (and disappointed) by this behavior.
