Dear Alex,

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?

Dear Alex @ Avantel,


Does openprotect (or the scan engines used) support the scanning of zip
files.  If so, I can't find anything that tells me how to configure that.
TIA

If you have installed ClamAV or Kaspersky with OpenProtect, it will scan zip, arj, arc and other popular formats.

cheers,

Can you forward the virus file you're using, so that we can also test the file?


cheers,
