It seems the latest virus is not being blocked by F-PROT

The file message.zip is getting through with the [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any suggestions non how to block it?


The best option is to download the latest interim release, 1.75i2, from 
http://www.declude.com/release/175i/Declude.exe and replace your existing 
\IMail\Declude.exe file. Then, add a line BANNAME message.zip to your 
\IMail\Declude\virus.cfg file. That will block all E-mails with 
attachments named message.zip.

Since declude runs off the same exe and will purchased a license for the lite version how do we go about upgrading to the other versions? Pay the difference and get a new key?

Title: Message



Thanks 
for that info Andrew, however I am looking at the task manager for my box and 
even 1 declude process was taking 50% then it popped up another process with 45% 
granted these go away when the messages are finished, however this server passes 
a LOT of traffic, so the number of processes for imail is default (30), I hope 
it wouldnt use that many for it would kill the box. I let declude run for 2 
hours and my monitors reported 95-100% cpu usage 
consistantly.

  Mark, it may be 
  interesting for you to note that we don't set the number of instances of 
  Decludedirectly. Instead, the "max processes" limit in your IMail 
  SMTP advanced settings is what governs the total number ofIMail and 
  declude.exe instances.
  
  Also, an 
  important infrastructure detail is that IMailcalls one declude.exe for 
  each message (not recipient), and declude.exe quits after it is done. Watch 
  Task Manager for a while, sort alphabetically, and watch the number of 
  declude.exe instances come and note that their PIDs are always 
  changing.
  
  When I first 
  evaluated Declude JunkMail Pro, I had assumed it ran as a service and IMail 
  passed it data as necessary. This was entirely wrong, so the previous 
  two paragraphs would have been helpful to me. I hope they help 
  you.

  BTW, with an

  usage is at 50%, you need to start looking at things.

Most whitelists work fine in v1.65 -- it's just that whitelisting based on 
the reverse DNS entry, HELO/EHLO, and the subject weren't added until after 
1.65. So you can use WHITELIST FROM, WHITELIST IP, WHITELIST TO, 
WHITELIST TODOMAIN, and WHITELIST ANYWHERE with 1.65.

Title: weights





I'm having trouble understanding the weights in favor of the other tests. If you have an email that say spamcop is blocking and have that set to warn in the junkmail file, also it is listed in relays.osirusoft.com which is listed as warn, and the total weight of an the email is 33 and everything is left to defaults which is warn, would the end user still get the mail with the header listed as spam? Once the weights have been established and it is a high number such as 66 or above, how would this be routed to NULL instead of being delivered?
