Hello again everyone. I received a file that has been recognized as a virus by f-prot, but not by clam. Indeed it is a virus, since I can open it with my mailer and execute it, and really get infected.
So I submitted it, and I got this response from Diego d'Ambra : "E-mail sample with missing headers. SomeFool found if headers are added." So removing headers is a good way to let viruses go through ? You could argue that without headers, a message cannot go through. Well, it's wrong if this message is itself included in another one, like the one I got. So, what's next ? Clam will never recognize those ? Do I need to write a program to fix headers and/or parse the mbox files myself before passing them to clam ?
