Some time ago there was a discussion that resulted in the GTUBE test
spam message being added to the Clamav signatures[1].

The problem with this is that it is hard to test an anti-spam solution
(such as Spamassassin) on the same server, as ClamAV may reject a
message before Spamassassin gets a chance to look at it. This could
result in the false assumption that Spamassassin is working correctly
when in actual fact it is not.

Given that there is the Eicar message for testing AV software, and the
Gtube for testing Spam software, could Gtube be removed from ClamAV
please?

Thanks,

Andy
