Way to GO JOE!!!

I was just thinking of exploring this possibility further when I noted your posting to this list.

The Clam AntiVirus software,

        http://www.clamav.net

runs under MacOSX.

To get a working version there are three choices:

        * roll your own,
        * download/build using Fink,
        * download a package built by Mark Allan
                http://www.markallan.co.uk/clamXav/

Mail.app, the stock mail program that comes with MacOSX, supports the
creation of mail filters, which Apple calls Rules. One possible action
in a Rule is to invoke an Applescript.

I searched the web for an Applescript that would filter email through
ClamAV, but did not find one. I contacted Mark Allan, the maintainer of
clamXav, and was told that to his knowledge none existed. So..., I wrote
one.


Attached is an Applescript [in text format] that will filter email
through the Clam AntiVirus scanner. Upon detecting infected email:

        * subject is prefixed with "***INFECTED***"
        * message is tagged as "Junk"
        * message is moved to mailbox "Junk"
