Primary mail server is a relay that has clamav-milter runnning (along with 
SpamAssassin) and filters mail for several domains.  No problem.  Mail 
found to be carrying a virus is quarantined to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and a 
notice is sent to the intended recipient to that effect.
Clamav-milter is called with -dH -m 10 --from -p [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -t /etc/clamav/virus-warning 
/var/local/clamav/clamav-milter.sock

I've put clamav-milter on a backup mail server to try and elmiminate some 
of the crap mail from the mass-mailing pestilence that's spreading itself 
around.  Backup mail server is running clamav-milter only.  When a 
virus-laden e-mail is found, it is quarantined to the same address 
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and no notice is sent to the intended recipient.
For this configuration clamav-milter is called with -dH -m 10 --from -P 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/local/clamav/clamav-milter.sock

Problem is that the primary mail server is catching the virus-infected 
e-mail again and generating the notification.  According to the man page, 
the quarantine address is supposed to be whitelisted by the milter.  I've 
also tried using the --whitelist-file option, but it doesn't seem to be 
working.

Anyone else using the whitelist feature successfully?
