[Declude.Virus] Exclude from real-time scanning
Is the \imail\spool\virus the only directory I need to exclude from my realtime virus scanner? For testing, I've excluded the whole \imail directory from by virus scanning, but when I put this server live, I'd like to have as much protection on it as possible. Thanks, ::James Nelson

No -- in fact, you can have the virus scanner scan that directory if you really want to. The only damage in that case is that it could possibly delete/alter an E-mail that had already been quarantined. The big problem is if the on-access virus scanner scans the temporary directories that Declude Virus uses off of the \IMail\spool directory. If that is done, and the on-access scanner happens to detect a virus, the virus *will* be delivered. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.

So would it be best to exclude the \imail\spool directory then? ::James Nelson --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.
