Hi there
I'm running clamav 0.80rc4 and have just had our Qmail-Scanner system spit the dummy on a message because clamdscan was exiting error status 2 with the message "Bad format or broken data ERROR".
I'm going to guess that the message was corrupt in some way that clamdscan didn't like - that's fine - but is that error code 2 the same if clamdscan has a corrupt virus DB file as well?
i.e. shouldn't clamav differentiate between reporting error codes for internal errors (which are fatal), and external/file error - which are more informational as they are beyond clamav's direct control?
i.e. I'd like to see different exit codes so that Qmail-Scanner can differentiate them ;-)
Thanks!
PS: no I can't show you the offending file. It was probably a virus. The SMTP client sending it tried 21 times in 7 minutes to resend it and then disappeared - I never got a chance to grab a copy. Doesn't sound like a valid mail server...
