Hi Eddie, I'm not running debian squeeze but, from your question, I guess you are using clamav for scanning emails with the help of amavis. So it is not a question of scanning files and directories on the disk.
In this case (emails), it is probably in the amavis configuration that you will find your answer: clamav just tells the file is infected and amavis decides what to do with it and with the email. Look for instance at the following page: <http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/amavisd- settings.html> HTH Pierre On 4 May 2012 at 7:39, Mr. Eddie Jackson wrote: > Please answer this simple basic newbie webmaster question.
