IMO milter (and similar techniques - I use qpsmtpd) are vastly superior
for this reason, and should be used where possible (virus checking is
easy - spam detection is a lot harder, because you need per-user
configurations on the MX).

is pretty obvious that ClamAV was not designed to
protect the machine it is running on, but to protect other machines.
Like any good tool, ClamAV is used for tasks for which it wasn't
designed. However, if you do that, you must be prepared to invest a
little work by yourself, and can't e

This is also perfectly legitimate.
Now the question for the ClamAV developers is: Do they want the users of
Remi's program to download the db themselves or do they want to allow
Remi to distribute the db with his program. The end result in both cases
is the same.
g NNTP instead of SMTP? Then the clamav server doesn't
have to push out those messages to everybody but only to its neighbours
which will distribute it further.
