     First: I myself mean, that _I_ receive updates and _I_ place them into
ClamAV directories (directly by hands or indirectly through my own utilities
and batch files/scripts).

     Second: why you think, that ClamAV can't trust connection through
mails, but may trust online access (which may be deceipted by hacked DNS and
other services)?
