That depends on your expectations. If you're purely using it for your
own personal protection, you're absolutely right. If you're using it
as a service to others, whether employees or clients, it's a different
story.
My point is - when I've told someone I can protect them from phishing to
some degree, ClamAV is letting me down by not delivering in time.
Even though it is as you say, your responsibility, you failed to do all
you could to stop the phishing messages. It takes just a few minutes to
come up with a filter (I've written several this morning) and you didn't
do it. At least you don't indicate you have. To blame ClamAV for letting
you down is unkind and inaccurate. You apparently shirked your
responsibilities and threw the problem over the wall for ClamAV's team
to correct, and then complained about the quality of service.
I'd really like to repeat - I am most definitely NOT complaining. I
just think the phishing detection of ClamAV is pointless when it's one
to two days late.
You most certainly are complaining. And in my opinion, submitting a
sample should not be done to correct your problem - you should already
have done that - the submission is a contribution to the community so
others will benefit from the event you experienced. And there's really
no reason to continue this.
