When I scan a MIME message using ClamAV, can I just feed the raw
message into ClamAV, or do I have to use ripmime first to extract the
individual attachments into files first?

No you don't have to use ripmime.



I've tested a virus message I received, by scanning first the whole MIME message, then just the attachment. ClamAV detected a virus in both cases, but it detected a *different* virus!


There are actually two viruses in the mail.


Whole MIME message: Exploit.IFrame.Gen FOUND
Just the attachment: Worm.Gibe.F FOUND
