Due to Gibe annoying me with its persistance, I installed clamscan, and found (like others) that a large percent of Gibe messages were being missed.
Well, it's not a clamscan bug, at least in my case.
Here's the setup I was using:
procmail -> trashscan -> clamscan
The weak link was my trashscan configuration; I had decided to use
metamail, since it was listed first. After much careful tracing, I was
able to determined that metamail can _not_ parse some of gibe's e-mails
correctly, causing no files to be spit out, and therefore leaving nothing
for clamscan to scan!
The solution was simple; I installed uudeview and told trashscan to use it; now all the Gibe e-mails are being properly detected. (Aside from those few that are truncated, which is understandable.)
I'd suggest that trashscan's support for metamail be removed, or at the
least a warning added; it's clearly not up to the task of handling modern
virii, and it's making clamscan look unnecessarily bad.
Thanks,
