Perhaps marketing speak would better suit you. McAffee detects phishing
emails. What better way to give *ALL* AV

It is frequently most efficient to test for spam content prior to scanning
for viruses - there is no point in virus scanning a file if it has
failed a spam content test. That's more than you asked but not bad to
know.
The reverse is
Dennis Peterson wanted us to know:
Of the two processes (spam scanning and virus scanning), spam scanning is
more resource-intensive (at least the way I do it) - so I virus scan
first, and spam-scan second.
Interesting - that is exactly the opposite of my experiences so I'm

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wanted us to know:
When a milter is configured to reject at the SMTP level, it never gets
to the second milter in the chain. So if clamav-milter detects a
virus, the CPU intensive content scanning process never sees the
message (hence much lower load).

René Berber wanted us to know:
I agree with this, the log shows two different processes running, both
as daemon.
Could the start script run freshclam twice?
No, when he upgraded from 0.81 to 0.83, it looks like the old process
was never killed. It happily kept running.

Yesterday, I subjected ClamAV to a very rigorous, final
stress test. I let it scan roughly 20,000 news spool files,
and opened an individual connection for each file (not very

especially since I ran 5 simultaneous

Hello ClamAV-Users,
I am running Clam on a Gentoo box, However the latest version is not yet
in Portage...
Does anyone know how much of a mission it would be to un-merge my

IMO, blacklists are crap, don't use them. There are better ways to
avoid spam.
Those of us in operational contexts who block 60%+ of inbound mail for
being spam would beg to differ with you. Known spam supporting
operations should be spanked for allowing

If you do ls -l in /tmp you'll be able to see the socket if it exists.
