Hi! I don't know if any av-product could do that, but in that case, it's up to the av-product and no longer the job for qmail-scanner.
qmail-scanner only invokes the av-program to scan the files that qmail-scanner previously unpacked... If the av-program reports that it found a virus, qmail-scanner stops the message, if the files are clean, the message gets passed on. / Jonas ----- Original Message ----- From: "tonix (Antonio Nati)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Jonas Mixter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 2:34 PM Subject: Re: [Qmail-scanner-general]Behaviour on virus cleaned attachments > Hi Jonas, > > do all av-products play the same way, or there is someone able to pick up > e-mail in his original format and handle it (including cleaning and > reformatting)? > > Tonino > > At 23/04/2002 23/04/2002 +0200, Jonas Mixter wrote: > >Hi! > >Most of the emails with viruses are generated by the virus and doesn't > >contain any useful information.
