[Clamav-users] Documentation patch.
Hi there, The clamav-milter manpage says "-Q, --quarantine=EMAILADDRESS If this e-mail address is given, messages containing a virus or worm are redirected to it." However it doesn't say that if you use this option then infected mail will be accepted rather than rejected. I don't see why it should be necessary to accept infected mail under any circumstances, but since that's what happens I think it ought to be documented. So I suggest adding something like " If this option is specified then the mail message will be accepted, even if it would otherwise have been rejected." In future I'll quarantine infected mail to a directory instead of by email to the postmaster. :) -- 73, Ged. ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
Re: [Clamav-users] Documentation patch.
It would be necessary for reference reasons. I have all infected messages send to a special "virus" account on my e-mail server so I can later go back and read headers or what not to determine where it came from should I see a ton of the same virus. It's also handy to have a virus on file to send for test reasons to see how well other AV solutions works with a large variety of virus ready e-mails. So I find the feature very useful and it has a good purpose for me. G.W.

That's implicit, IMHO. There's no such thing as "rejected" to an EMAILADDRESS. "reject" denotes an SMTP 5.x.x status code (4.x.x also, if you will) that precludes the accepting of the mail. Conversely, mail which is sent to EMAILADDRESS is by definition accepted for delivery; hence, per definition not rejected; hence, no documentation change required. :) - Mark ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
