Hi Ryan. I'd be interested as well.

Currently, I am using qmail-scanner w/KAV and spamassassin. You are right though, 
Kaspersky's "qmail-queue" replacement does not work (properly), and I ended up 
implementing it without the daemon process. BUT this is obviously not the best method 
as the kavscanner program needs to start up, load all the virus lists etc, for each 
inbound message!    Thanks to the RBLs I use, the number of actual inbound messages 
that need to be dealt with is limited.

Hey all.  How many people out there use qmail-scanner with KAV?  I'm
asking because qmail-scanner's support for KAV seems to be less than par.  
As the FAQ indicates, yes, AVPlinux is VERY slow for just scanning a few
files per run, and the AVPdaemon implementation in qmail-scanner just
doesn't work.  However, I've been playing with it, and I think I have hit
gold.  I have written a subroutine that is a 100% perl AVPdaemon client
(AVPdaemon uses a named file pipe for communication with a cryptic command
format, but I decyphered it from a C example in the KAV tarball).  Once
you start up AVPdaemon, scans are VERY quick.  I just need to finish up a
little bit of code, and then will release the patch to you guys.

Ryan
