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:

settings.html>
