There are two entirely seperable issues here. First, make sure that what you have in /var/lib/clamav actually needs to be there by running rm -rf /var/lib/clamav/* freshclam -v Then, a seperate issue: WTF are you invoking clamscan seperately for each email? Use clamdscan and consider getting just a little performance out of the software you use. Take care, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
