I am new to ClamAV and am just trying to get my head straight!
The business
I work for currently uses a Postfix mail server, and we are
running ClamSMTP
using ClamAV of course. My problem is that we receive hundreds of
emails
with Excel & Word document attachments daily. Some of these
"legitimate"
files often get blocked, preventing the entire email from going
through.
You may be new, but you can still help us all out. If clamav is
incorrectly marking them as viruses, please submit the files as
false positives at http://cgi.clamav.net/sendvirus.cgi
Agreed.
However, also please note that sometimes people have Excel or Word
docs that were infected and then cleaned, which still contain some
viral fingerprints that ClamAV recognizes. If you can quarantine
some of these files and double-check with some other viral scanners,
you might find that ClamAV is actually blocking these files for good
reason....
