Greetings;

In my .procmailrc, I have the following defined:

VIRIBOX = "/var/spool/mail/virii"

Then later:
# Scan for viruses
:0cW
|clamdscan --no-summary --stdout -
CLAMAV_CODE=$?

:0
* $CLAMAV_CODE ?? 1
$VIRIBOX

The log occasionally shows an "instream name of virus FOUND"

But /var/log/mail/virii does not exist. So my question is:

Is this a 'mailfile' created on demand, or a directory which should belong 
to the clamd user:group?

There do not seem to be any noisy errors out of procmail beyond this for a 
FOUND instance.

procmail: Error while writing to "/var/spool/mail/virii"

But that also doesn't disclose what sort of a file/directory this "virii" 
is.

Thanks all.


Cheers, Gene
