Okay, so I'm not really daemonizing it, but I am making it so I can run the scanner on a different server then the qmail server so I can offload that work and just have the qmail server just worry about delivering the mail. > reformime will unpack the attachments into that dir... if you have > force_unzip enabled, it will unzip files it can in that dir. Ah, so I'm scanning the the unpacked uncompressed email. Is uvscan smart enought to do the unpacking and uncompressing itself? I seem to remember reading somewhere that uvscan already does that, I might be wrong though. Maybe I just let qmail-scanner do the unpacking and have my spamd/uvscan bastardized daemon run through every file in that directory? Actually I'm now looking at the uvscan docs, it seems by adding --mime and --mailbox to uvscan it should handle the unpacked email by itself. Maybe these should be added to qmail-scanner itself? Also qmail-scanner sets the --secure option, which activates --unzip, so should --unzip be taken out of qmail-scanner? > > i also have the uvscan SDK for Linux straight from NAI, so if you know > how to "truely" make a daemonized uvscanner, i'd be very interested! > I'm just no good with C... guess i could go with the sophie or trophie > code and adapt it, but i'm also lazy... haha :) Yeah, I was thinking about switching to one of those two, but we have already paid for the uvscan liscense. Although adapting the sophie or trophie code for uvscan may be ideal! Where did you get the SDK from?
