Hi,

I'm using the qmail scanner with f-prot. The full version of f-prot comes
with a deamon for the scanning of files. Qmail scanner uses the command line
f-prot program for scanning the email. Has anyone ever tried to get
qmailscanner to use the daemon? Google couldn't tell me. It could result in
a faster scan of the email.

It should be quite easy. Reading the man at
http://www.f-prot.com/support/unix_manpages/f-protd.8.html sais that one
should issue a request to http://localhost:10200/path/to/file. The daemon
then comes back with a report in xml format. I tried it using lynx (as
described there) and it works perfectly.

If this hasen't been done before, can anyone please point me to some
examples of http requests in perl and working with the output of that? I
allready looked at the qmailscanner code and it doesn't look that difficulty
to me. I have don't know perl (yet) but do have plenty programming knowledge
and i'm interested in trying to get this thing I thought up to work.

Thanks!
Arno Slatius
