After some more checking - let me revise my question. According to the mail
log files, Clamav and Kapersky are finding the virus files inside the zip
archive but the e-mail is passed to the destination without a {Virus} warning
- just the normal signature block saying the mail is scanned & found to be
clean and the zip file remains attached.

Both ClamAV and Kaspersky are installed but zip files are not being scanned -
or if they are, the virus files contained in the archive are not detected. I
have confirmed that the zip files contain virus files by extracting the file
and sending it to myself and then the virus is "detected". Although detection
appears to be based more on the file type rather than the content of the file
- it's deleted for being a banned filetype rather than for being an obvious
virus file.
Am I missing a setting somewhere or is my openprotect misconfigured or what?
