Package: exim4-daemon-heavy Version: 4.50-4 Severity: important i apologize if this is tied to the wrong package. it's hard to tell if it is an exim4 bug or a clamav bug. based on the solution given below, i selected this one.
after enabling the av_scanner directive in exim4, using clamav, we started receiving the following error: 2005-05-24 06:25:20 1DaYTI-0007JY-Ku malware acl condition: clamd: ClamAV returned /var/spool/exim4/scan/1DaYTI-0007JY-Ku: Access denied. ERROR the above error results in _all_ mail being temporarily rejected. the solution is to add the user clamav to the group Debian-exim . as such, i am suggesting that clamav be added to group Debian-exim as part of the exim4 install/configuration. -- Package-specific info: Exim version 4.50 #1 built 02-Mar-2005 07:42:40 Copyright (c) University of Cambridge 2004 Berkeley DB: Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.2.52: (December 3, 2003) Support for: iconv() IPv6 PAM Perl GnuTLS Content_Scanning Old_Demime Lookups: lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm dbmnz dnsdb dsearch ldap ldapdn ldapm mysql nis nis0 passwd pgsql Authenticators: cram_md5 cyrus_sasl plaintext spa Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral iplookup manualroute queryprogram redirect Transports: appendfile/maildir/mailstore/mbx autoreply lmtp pipe smtp Fixed never_users: 0 Configuration file is /etc/exim4/exim4.conf -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages exim4-daemon-heavy depends on: ii exim4-base 4.50-4 support files for all exim MTA (v4 ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdb4.2 4.2.52-18 Berkeley v4.2 Database Libraries [ ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-9 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libldap2 2.1.30-8 OpenLDAP libraries ii libmysqlclient10 3.23.56-3 LGPL-licensed client library for M ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpcre3 4.5-1.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libperl5.8 5.8.4-8 Shared Perl library ii libpq3 7.4.7-6 PostgreSQL C client library ii libsasl2 2.1.19-1.5 Authentication abstraction library -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
