The clamd local scanning was resolved by setting up non_smptd_milter to the same socket as smtpd_milter. Simple, obvious. /var/log/mail/ showed EICAR detected, but the received (locally sent) email did not have a flag in the header to show that. In any event, I now need to do something with, or to, the "infected" email, which could be a simple as adding something to the subject line. However, how to do that, or if it is even possible, is not obvious to me. joe a. _______________________________________________ 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
