but imagine: MTA delivers a mail where the virusscanner finds nothing. Mail gets delivered. Some time later there is a scannerupdate. Now the scanner would find a malicious content. So I may instantly scan the complete mailstore each time a new pattern arrives or scan only each accessed mail with the latest pattern. This seems smarter to me. For this scenario I would like to see a concept for datainspection/datamodification in dovecot. What about when dovecot would act as a milter client? Sounds strange but the problems are the same, why not use existing solutions ? -- Andreas Schulze Internetdienste | P532 DATEV eG 90329 Nürnberg | Telefon +49 911 319-0 | Telefax +49 911 319-3196 E-Mail info @datev.de | Internet www.datev.de Sitz: 90429 Nürnberg, Paumgartnerstr. 6-14 | Registergericht Nürnberg, GenReg Nr.70 Vorstand Prof. Dieter Kempf (Vorsitzender) Dipl.-Kfm.
