I am currently trying to make sure qmail-scanner will scan any zip files
that come through.  I have the eicar test virus file and have sent it
through without ziping and it is detected.  When I zip the file and send
it, it is not detected.

In my qmail-scanner.pl file I chaged this to 1 (please note I am using
MailDIR):

#If you trust the virus scanners handling of mbox format itself
#you may want to let it have a go at the "raw" message, and original
#zip files if present
my $redundant_scanning='1';

I also changed this to 1:

#Finally, are you sure your virus scanners can unpack zip files?
#McAfee's doesn't!
my $force_unzip=1;

I am using clamscan, and I update the virus defs daily.  Is there
anything I have to do for the qmail-scanner.pl changes to take affect?

Is there something I am missing to have ZIP files scanned?

Thanks again,
Dan
