Hi Bjorn,
i have been using qmail with 2 different antivirus packages.
the installation i use requires the QMAIL-QUEUE patch which is then adjusted
to use the qmail-scanner which calls the antivirus software .
As you are using the netqmail-1.05 the qmail-queue patch is included, so all
you have to add is the qmail-scanner
hope this helps out

Subject: [LINUX.ORG.MT] Anti Virus problem
Hi Everyone !
I am running Suse 9.0 and I have installed
qmail (netqmail Ver. 1.05)
amavis (amavis-new Ver. 20030616p5-23)
antivir (Ver 2.08-16)
Antivir seems to be an evaluation version. (The one that came with Suse 9.0)
I donwloaded the EICAR E-Mail Test Virus but when I send either an infected
attachment or simply copy the virus string on the mail, the antivirus
doesn't recognize the virus, and the mail passes normally.
However when I run antivir on the infected file (attachment) by itself, it
recognizes the virus. The same occured with f-prot (however I got some minor
errors while installing f-prot). When I run either anti-virus scanner on my
mailbox (mbox), none of them manage to see the virus.
Anyone has an idea what's wrong ?
Regards
Björn
