Hi,
I use qmail-scanner 1.25st, qmail 1.03 and clamav
I setup a quarantine-attachments.txt file to block people from
sending our users .exe, .pif, etc. files. .zip files are allowed
through, but apparently my system is even rejecting messages that
contain .exe, .pif, etc. files WITHIN .zip files.
This is not what I want to happen. I'd like to be able to receive
zip files that contain anything, but not receive plain .exe, .pif,
etc. files.
Just disable redundant scanning, edit
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl and set:
my $redundant_scanning='0';
In this way some PIF files will go through and it is really not good,
because a PIF file only could be a virus, so if it was blocked by
quarantine-attachments your antivirus had not detected it due ii is a
very new virus and the update has not yet arrive...
Maybe it is better to instruct your user to rename the files that
must get through to an 'unknown' extension, for example:
prova.exe -> prova.ex
The recipient must rename it again, remember to an 'unknown' extension...
In this way the antivirus will check them so you still will be almost
protected.
