I had a case of clamav breaking a file server yesterday afternoon due to this. So far my QMT's are doing fine (they are on 0.95 and therefore should be good). However, you may want to see this as a reference: http://www.circleid.com/posts/20100416_clamav_and_the_case_of_the_missin g_mail/

I fixed up 2 that were on 0.92. They were seeing the dreaded "qq soft reject" message in the smtp log. I'm a little surprised/disturbed that this could break a QMT, even being out of date. While I don't endorse letting AV software getting out of date, new releases shouldn't break existing installations. Perhaps just disable itself at worse. Perhaps we need to look into why/how this broke QMT, and change something to prevent it from happening again. I don't think I understand the problem precisely, so I'm not yet prepared to suggest a permanent solution. Other than upgrading of course. ;) South Computers wrote: > Actually it broke 3 of my toasters completely. > > If anyone hasn't upgraded their clamav, you better do it! > > > > Quinn Comendant wrote: >> Just a reminder to everybody that ClamAV 0.94.x is no longer >> supported by signature file updates after 15 Apr 2010. >> http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/2009/10/05/eol-clamav-094/ >> >> If you haven't yet upgraded to 0.95.x you need to do so now to >> process signature updates provided through freshclam.
