I'm running a product called cleanmail (byteplant [dot] com) on a Debian 10.13 VM, which uses clamdscan to check incoming e-mails. Once a day, one of my other VMs sends a very simple combination clear text/HTML mail.  Recently this has occasionally failed to appear in the target mailbox.  On checking, the clamdscan scan has been taking many minutes to complete.

When I pull a copy of that mail and manually run clamdscan, it completes almost instantly:

eddie@CleanMail:~$ date ; clamdscan CleanMail_672B506300010005.eml --fdpass --no-summary ; date
Wed 06 Nov 2024 12:23:25 PM PST
/home/eddie/CleanMail_672B506300010005.eml: OK
Wed 06 Nov 2024 12:23:25 PM PST
eddie@CleanMail:~$

This is an almost identical email sent nightly, which until recently was received like clockwork.

Any thoughts on how I can track this down as I can't predict when this might next happen.
