I've installed the free Linux AVG7, and I would like to make amavisd-new
use it. My amavisd.conf has got configuration for an AVG daemon, and I
have one running on the same port, but it doesn't quite work and I don't
know enough about configuring virus scanners in Amavis to fix it.

I've got amavisd-new 2.5.1 from an openSUSE package, and my conf file has:

# ### http://www.grisoft.com/
 ['AVG Anti-Virus',
   \&ask_daemon, ["SCAN {}\n", '127.0.0.1:55555'],
   qr/^200/, qr/^403/, qr/^403 .*?: ([^\r\n]+)/ ],

The error in the log file when Amavis tries to use it is:

Nov 10 21:36:48 linda amavis[5746]: (05746-14) (!!)ask_av (AVG
Anti-Virus) FAILED - unexpected result: 220-AVG7 Anti-Virus daemon mode
scanner\r\n220-Program version 7.5.51, engine 442\r\n220-Virus Database:
Version 270.9.0/1779  2008-11-10
\r\n220 Ready\r\n200 OK\r\n

This I imagine is because the daemon outputs 3 informational lines that
the rule doesn't understand. I don't know how to update the rule to make
it ignore these. For completeness, a trace of an example daemon
conversation:

<<  220-AVG7 Anti-Virus daemon mode scanner
<<  220-Program version 7.5.51, engine 442
<<  220-Virus Database: Version 270.9.0/1779  2008-11-10
<<  220 Ready
>>  SCAN /tmp/xorg.conf.16465
<<  200 OK
>>  QUIT
<<  221 Connection closed

Thanks in advance,

John.
