You have to configure clamd using clamd.conf and then start clamd. Clamd can use a socket or an IP:port connection, that's up to you. Personally, I find clamd.conf descriptive enough to be able to find out how to configure it. After starting clamd, you can use clamdscan instead of clamscan for scanning (the file(s) in) your email. -- Rob _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
