-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a doubt respecting amavis... I've read there are some antiviruses that run in daemon mode (clamav-daemon, sophie) because if you want to check a lot of files every 2 or 3 seconds (like a mail server does), it takes a lot of resources to load virus definitions every time, so they load definitions once and stay as a daemon. But I thought AMaViS implemented this. Am I certain? Does AMaViS load virus definitions every time a mail is checked? I mean, is useless a daemon antivirus with amavis?
