Yeah, but they do pay the bills...

It varies from account from account.  Some users have 5-minute cronjobs
that automatically move the file to an internal server (which I could
modify so that the file gets scanned first), and some sit there for days
until there's manual intervention.  A few users have scripts running on
internal servers that poll the FTP server every so often (one user who's
not in my good books is polling every 10 seconds!).

I just hate the idea of rescanning files that have

It's an ugly problem which is why I posted for more ideas.  It would be
nice if there was a hook right into wu-ftpd that did the scan during the
upload so it only gets scanned once and can't be missed either.
