Yes, reloading the DB can take some time depending on which signature DBs you are using. I can't speak for postfix (I run sendmail), but on my server if it can't run the AV scan, then it simply tempfails the email and the remote server (should) try later. I wouldn't call the current design a "bug"... It works as intended. However it would be nice if a fresh DB could be parsed & loaded, then swapped, to prevent service interruption. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
