No: As demonstrated earlier, you should *ONLY EVER* discard viruses. This has nothing to do with any reporting you do, or whether you do it at SMTP time or not. However, it does dramatically reduce the usefulness of doing any higher level virus/spam detection during the SMTP conversation, because once you rule out rejects and bandwidth savings, there's no qualitative reason to make such an effort to do it anymore. Sorry, but you seem to have missed a lot of the basis of the argument I outlined in earlier mails. - Jeff -- GVADEC 2004: Kristiansand, Norway http://2004.guadec.org/ "I'm taking no part in your merry 5-way clusterfuck - sort that mess out between yourselves." - Alexander Viro -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
