..but Qmail-Scanner *isn't* a virus scanner itself! That's what the AV hooks are for. If you want to catch viruses, you must use the AV hooks. If you want to block certain classes of messages for policy reasons, then you can use the perlscan module of Qmail-Scanner (the quarantine-attachments.txt file). However, that allows you to block on header and attachment information - it doesn't support scanning the body of the message. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
