Hi, I am running MD 2.41 on RedHat 9 with sendmail 8.12.8 (Plus security patches) and ClamAV 0.68. This is running on a Pentium III 1.2GHZ with 1Gb of ram. I am running /var/spool/MIMEDefang on a ramdisk. When a user sends an email with a 13 Mb (encoded), word document attachement, CLAMD starts using 100% of the processor for a time, until eventually (After a minute or so), Mimedefang returns a "Milter (mimedefang): timeout before data read" error. I eventually got the email to go through by changing the timeout settings on the Milter config line in sendmail.mc from: INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:1m;R:1m;E:10m') to INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:3m;R:3m;E:10m')
Should these values be even higher and should the milter be timeing out like this while waiting for a virus scan to finish? Also, would you expect CLAMD to use so much processor for such a long time on a file that isnt really that big?
