[xmail] Re: ClamAV usage with XMail
I actually use both, but not in XMail. I use ClamAV with ASSP and then hand it off to XMail which scans w/F-Prot. Since ASSP does all the delaying, rejecting, ... it keeps the spool directory really clean.

I use both ClamAV and F-Prot, every message gets scanned twice.

[xmail] Re: ClamAV usage with XMail
I use ASSP withlut ClamAV, then the email is scanned by ClamSMTP WITH ClamAV. ASSP's implementation is less complete than ClamSMTP which does a deep scan. Then XMail gets the email for delivery. This has worked great up until XMail 1.24, but now I seem to be having time out problems with XMail. My guess is that 1.24 is slower with the SSL addition (even not using SSL) than 1.23 and that is cuaing it to hang. Using ClamAV with ClamSMTP I have only had one virus in over three years get through, and that due to a failed update the night before.

One thing that I googled time ago that was making openssl for have large delays, was related to the lack of a good source of entropy. But if you're not using openssl, that's never get triggered. Also, are you sure it's XMail sucking CPU? - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
