After having integrated nod32 with qmail, and dug a bit in qmail-scanner code, I want to ask for some modification that I would like to have in the product.

Introduction/use of these additional parameters:
================================================

--hostname “name of host”
        (this would let avoid to edit each time the generated .pl file)
--return-path “
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
        (To be used instead of "Return-Path: <>". A lot of messages are bouncing back because some remote systems don't accept "Return-Path: <>". I would like to indicate a "black hole" address, in order to avoid this problem)
--nice
        (I would like to run antivirus command with lower priority - e-mail is low priority traffic, usually, and antiviruses consume resources)
--local-domains-file "file-path"
        (Where to look for indications about local domains. I would like to avoid editing the .pl file each time I have to add a domain)
--no-archive
        (about blocked messages, don't put them in the quarantine folder)

Other requests:
===============

1) Have on external files (like is already done for most messages) all the equivalents of “virus found”, “illegal attachment found”, “problem”, in order to let us translate within local files these words also.

2) Eliminate the

        FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        TO: myuser.com

lines (they make confusion, as end users do not understand that this FROM: address is instead the return-path), and enrich the headers display, adding

        Return-Path:    <return-path>

It would be nice to enrich these lines adding the text body of the blocked message and putting all these lines in an external text file, letting us to customize (and translate) these lines also.

The most is carried out in locale files, the best is for me (and all not english language ISP, I suppose).

3) eliminate the 'system part' of the various scanners paths that are displayed, in order to avoid to send externally informations about internal configuration. I did this within nod32 patches.
So, messages like

---perlscanner results ---
Attachment .SCR disallowed' found in file /var/qmail/qmailscan/spool/smtp.ufficiopostale.it102123381236351446/src.scr
---

should become:

---perlscanner results ---
Attachment .SCR disallowed' found in file .../src.scr
---

Ciao and thanks,

Tonino
