Re: [Declude.Virus] Order of operations
I got this today and have a question. - Declude Virus v1.65 caught the [Outlook 'MIME Header' Vulnerability] virus in CLEAR.pif from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to: Does Declude check for the vulnerabilities and if one is found that's it? No virus check? It checks for both vulnerabilities and viruses and about the same time, but will always give priority to viruses that are detected. In this case, the virus was not detected as a virus. Have you checked the log file to see if it reports anything unusual about this E-mail? Have you checked recently to see if the eicar.com file gets caught when sent from our Test Mail Sender at http://www.declude.com/tools ? -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.

> Below is a copy of the postmaster e-mail this domain is getting. Any help in explaining this would be appreciated. I am sure Scott will respond, but until he does, what is happening is the user is send an e-mail with an attachment using Outlook Express that is too large. Outlook Express is breaking it up into a number of messages so that it can be sent. The problem with this is that a virus could hide an not be detected.

Re: [Declude.Virus] How to explain the [Partial Vulnerability]virus to a user.
How do you explain the [Partial Vulnerability] virus to a user? Something like "Back in the old days, E-mails were limited to 50K each, and large files had to be broken down among several smaller E-mails. For year now, however, E-mails haven't been limited to a specific size, and so people rarely ever split up E-mails anymore. Recently, it was discovered that splitting up E-mails would bypass many virus scanners, so it is now recommended practice for mailservers to block any E-mails that have been split up in this way." How do they fix it? They need to set their mail client not to split up outgoing E-mails. They almost certainly at some point saw a checkbox in their mail client settings and said "Gee, let me check this!"; that's the one they need to uncheck. I believe it comes from having this setting turned on in my config? BANCRVIRUSESON Correct. It is STRONGLY recommended to keep that at its default setting of ON; otherwise, future viruses WILL get through your server. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.

How do you explain the [Partial Vulnerability] virus to a user? How do they fix it? I believe it comes from having this setting turned on in my config? # # The BANCRVIRUSES option will automatically treat E-mail with malformed headers that could # contain a virus as if they did contain a virus.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Scanning Process
We are testing two virus scanners with Declude Pro and wanted to confirm or thoughts. Is it true that the scanners scan the file first, whether you have one, two, or five and then once done, the action on the virus is taken (i.e. quarantined)? That is correct. Declude Virus Pro will check the attachments against all the virus scanners that you have configured, and if any of them report that a virus was detected, Declude Virus will quarantine the E-mail. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.
