It does bad things, by default (tempfailing the mail, as I recall). The fix is to give the --dont-scan-on-error option to your clamav-milter. My full set of clamav-milter flags are: CLAMAV_FLAGS="--quiet --headers --noxheader --dont-log-clean --dont-scan-on-error --max-children=10 local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock" I'd encourage the developers to make this the recommended default, since anything else is just plain silly. ;) Damian Menscher -- -=#| Physics Grad Student & SysAdmin @ U Illinois Urbana-Champaign |#=- -=#| 488 LLP, 1110 W.
