Hi Karsten,
just for may interest, i dont see
a significant grow of german maleware in mail,
i use clamav-milter with
http://www.sanesecurity.com/clamav/
and i dont know something slipping through
( investigated the quarantaine dir )
on 5 realy big mailserver with over hundert domains ( mostly german )
an over 3000 mailboxes,
after all it would only be evil if real viri bypass
but as its some kind of spam ( pishing etc ) its
checked from spamassassin and marked too in my setups
perhaps you should tune up antispam features in your mailserver
in general to block incoming bots before getting to clamav-antivir stage
that should raise down the maleware rate in any case
so where do your info come from ?
