Hi Vladislav,

Unfortunately there is currently not an option to flag files when
MaxRecursion is exceeded. Looking at the README, ArchiveBlockMax was
removed from ClamAV in 0.93, don't know what were the reasons, it was
before my time. Maybe a search of the mail list archive could give insight,
or maybe someone else will have some thoughts? You can also open a feature
request at bugzilla.clamav.net.
