That could also be another limitation of the AVAPI, but I cant remember....

I get the administrative notifications.  I'm talking about a user that sends
an infected message.  He does not recieve a notification that he sent an
infected message.  Only the recipient receives a message.

Under Notification, Real Time Scan, You need to put your name in ScanMail
Administrators. Then you will get emails whenever a virus is nailed.

As for the other with the AVAPI, this is a limitation of the AVAPI. My
suggestion would be to use Scanmail 3.7x which uses ESE based scanning.

Exchange 5.5 SP4, ScanMail 3.52

We upgraded to ScanMail 3.52 and are running in both AVAPI and MAPI mode.  I
understand that running AVAPI, you lose the sender/recipient information for
viruses caught in the log files.  I'm a little confused on my testing on how
notification works.  I sent a test virus to a mailbox on our system and I
did not receive a notification that I sent a infected message.  The
recipient, on the other hand, did receive a message from my account and had
a text file entitled "Virus1_Detected_and_Removed_virusname.txt".

Shouldn't I have received a message as well.  I have the real time scan set
to send message to sender,recipient,administrator.

One other question.  Since I do not get the actual sender notifications in
the log files now,  I cannot determine where/who may be triggering an
outbreak.  Since the recipient gets a attachment with the
"Virus1xxxxxxxxx.txt" message is there a way to track this through the MTA
tracking log files.  Is there a diagnostic key on the MTA that will include
the attachment name sent on messages?
