I need an urgent solution using Amavis and Qmail on Linux.
I have had a look at the patches that Christopher Seawood
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has supplied but I get errors.
Has anyone successfully applied these patches?
I get a "malformed header on line 5"
( # - if "do_log" is set to "yes" #)

Aargh! I

The default qmail setup for amavis was slightly horked. You'll need to
apply the attached patch & configure it with: --enable-qmail
--enable-x-header=no. Once you have it installed, do:
cd /var/qmail/bin
mv qmail-remote qmail-remote-real
mv qmail-local qmail-local-real
ln -s /usr/sbin/scanmails qmail-remote
ln -s /usr/sbin/scanmails qmail-local
This will allow you to scan all incoming and outgoing mail for viruses.
If you do not feel comfortable moving the binaries around, you can just
add:
| /usr/sbin/scanmails $SENDER $RECEIPIENT
to /var/qmail/defaultdelivery/rc .
The attached patch fixes the following problems:
1. Should check $sender & $receiver against $SENDER & $RECEIPIENT
instead
of $2 & $7.
2. Do not attempt to log to the logfile if $do_log != 'yes'.
3. Since qmail doesn't use the default $deliver program, do not check
for
$deliver when attempting to pass on the mail.
I'm not sure why using formail to add the X-AntiVirus: header doesn't
work so always I disabled it. I think the proper step may be to
reinvoke
qmail-inject but I'm not sure how that would work.
