If you are using the freebsd ports system, you can upgrade your clamav installation using portupgrade (which can be installed from /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade). Simply edit your /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf file and add: MAKE_ARGS = { 'security/clamav' = 'CLAMAVUSER=mailnull

Hi all, I just upgraded my clamav (freebsd, ports) and again, it changed the permissions on some of it's directories and caused it to not start as user 'mailnull' (the same user that sendmail and mimedefang run as). I would rather let clamd run as the user it wants to (clamav user) and

I implemented this using the access.db feature of Sendmail, with scripts every five minutes scanning the logs and adding new entries. Any particular reason for doing it this way vs. implementing something within the mimedefang-filter to do it real-time much as greylisting does? I'm asking
