Every day I have received about 30 email's with pictures which have strange names( for example sevwqwso.gif, iwhfetsn.gif, qfwecqtf.jpg) and nonexistent's senders ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]). Clamav don't find any viruses in this email's .
Are you sure it's not just spam? A lot of spam uses random nonexistant senders like the ones you describe, and there is an entire class of spam consisting of a single image and no text (to get around text-based filters).
Can Clamav find viruses in pictures?
AFAIK Clam scans all files or message parts handed to it, so as long as the signature is there, it should find it.
