I was wondering how many clamav users came across this article: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1633536,00.asp
The author says, among other things: "Clearly the biggest need these days in an anti-virus system is for scanning e-mail, and here's where ClamAntiVirus scares me. According to the manual, mail support is turned off by default because it 'is still under development and may cause stability problems.'
I know when I first started using clam (with exiscan) the ScanMail directive in clamav.conf caused semi-frequent crashing, so the recommendation was to use the "demime" facility of exiscan to drop attachments as files and then scan them, but since 0.70 or so I've not had trouble with the ScanMail directive. Indeed body scanning and now HTML scanning in the CVS version have helped catch a lot of the newer nasties out there.
