Salvatore,

Many thanks for the quick response. I see from the qmail-scanner-queue.pl
file that I'm running 1.15,, but I found the lines you referred to, as well
as another which might need tweaking.

This what I've got at the moment:-

#Addresses that should be alerted of any quarantined Email
my $NOTIFY_ADDRS='admin';

I assume from this that it's sending an email alert to that user on the
default domain, which in my case is alizian.com.

And can I modify the following so it also reads CC='nmlvadm' ?

# Address carbon-copied on any virus reports
my $QUARANTINE_CC='[EMAIL PROTECTED]';

Really no... This is a little bit confuse... 'admin' is "$QUARANTINE_CC", when you choose as $NOTIFY_ADDRS admin, the notification will only send to the address in the "$QUARANTINE_CC"

Is it safe to modify these lines in 1.15 rather than the later 1.21 or 1.22?
And do I have to issue some kind of restart command for the changes to take
effect?

Yes is safe to do it in 1.15, you will consider to update to version 1.22 that has a lot of features against the new viruses. If you want to update directly from 1.15 check my page <http://xoomer.virgilio.it/j.toribio/qmail-scanner/>

Thanks again

Hi,

Apologies from a newbie. My sysadmin has quit and I'd like to be able
inhibit sending out "virus found" messages, whether spurious or not. Is

this

easy? I note from the list that silent-viruses-array is used to do this for
known viruses/worms, is this the way forward or is there a blanket command
that's better to use?

TIA

Stephen


Edit /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl and change the folliwing
variable:

#Addresses that should be alerted of any quarantined Email
my $NOTIFY_ADDRS='psender,nmlvadm';

To read only:

my $NOTIFY_ADDRS='nmlvadm';

Suposing your using version 1.21 or 1.22

Cheers

Salvatore
