Thanks for the link. Most interesting. I saved that info and will make that move next week once I've figured out everything I'm doing with it. I'm still learning all the options in qmail-scanner and clam. I noticed in your notes you say to Uncomment "ScanMail" in your instructions. What exactly does this option do? There are no comments in the file other than uncomment if you want to scan mail. Yet I have mine commented out and it's scanning our email. Thanks Malcolm PS. If anyone knows how to pass the documented PING, QUIT, RELOAD etc. commands to the clamd daemon please chip in as I'd love to know. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Clamav-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/clamav-users
