I saw this plugin listed in the SA Wiki, and contacted the author listed
in the Wiki about this issue. Seems he's disowned the thing, and he
suggested asking here. Is anyone on the list using this plugin?
I just installed the ClamAV plugin for SpamAssassin. This is a fresh
install of SpamAssassin-3.3.0-rc1 and ClamAV-0.95.3 with Postfix on CentOS
5.4. I'm using procmail via .forward to interface with SA. This server is
a home server with just a few email accounts being handled on it.
SA and ClamAV both seem to be scanning email and otherwise working
properly, except that the ClamAV plugin is inserting the X-Spam-Virus
header twice. Messages with a virus found are showing it first with "No"
and the second time with "Yes". In messages where no virus is detected, it
is "No" both times. The second instance immediately follows the first. The
report inserted into the header by SA only shows the ClamAV result once
and only when a virus is detected, and it looks like SA properly scores
it.
This is obviously not a serious problem, but it does seem odd. Is it
possible that messages are being processed by ClamAV twice, the result
being the double header insertion? And perhaps the first pass through does
not detect a virus?
I had a previous installation of SA 3.2.5 with ClamAV 0.95-3 and Postfix
that used clamsmtpd to hook ClamAV into Postfix. That setup did not
display this behavior.
