Being new to clamav, I'm still struggling a bit with the scanning process. I'm using clamav on a stand-alone machine. Clamd and fresh clam seem to be working O.K. at boot. My Thunderbird email headers are:
X-Mozilla-Status:0000
X-Mozilla-Status2:00000000
Is this what clam should be reporting? Or is there a setting I'm missing to show something like X-VirusScan:0 ? What should the headers look like to let me know everything is good.
Clamd doesn't add anything to mail messages, is another (3rd party) software that does that.
For instance you may retrieve your mail using P3scan which is a pop3 proxy, you do that by connecting Thunderbird to P3scan which in turn is connected to your real (ISP perhaps) pop server.
There are many 3rd party packages for different purposes, see http://www.clamav.net/3rdparty.html, and their installation and configuration including your client software (Thunderbird) varies. Thunderbird alone doesn't have antivirus integration (perhaps some plugin does, I'm not sure).
Hope this helps. -- René Berber
