No, it doesn't. We go fetchmail to procmail to mailbox and local POP3

tool that is maintained up to date automatically. I don't trust tools
like ClamAV to be as up to the minute as the email scanners. (Besides,

The problem arises if the open source filter is installed straight out

Hello,
Man, I can't wait till these kinds of features get implemented. Another
