Is EICAR considered forged?

No, it is not.


Using Tools page I sent myself tests for eicardynamicencodedzip and
eicarencodedzip.  Both were stopped (see logs below) but no notice was
sent.  Should I have gotten a notice if:

- Running i9
- VIRUS.CFG (logging MID) has BANEXT ZIP and BANEXT EZIP
- BANNOTIFY.EML has SKIPIFFORGED as first line (& no blank lines present
until after TO:, FROM:, and SUBJECT:

Yes, you should have.


To get a better idea of what is happening, you can use the Declude debug mode. To do this, change the "LOGLEVEL LOW" line in \IMail\Declude\virus.cfg to "LOGLEVEL DEBUG". Then, send the test eicar.com file through (using our Test Virus Sender at http://www.declude.com/tools ), and then switch back to "LOGLEVEL LOW" (the debug mode adds huge amounts of information to the log file). You can then send me (off-list) the \IMail\spool\vir####.log file (as an attachment, NOT sent from web messaging), and I can take a look at it to see what the problem may be.
