Now it's too late...

I think I had some problems with that. For some reason not all mail would get 
scanned. I believe the pop-before-smtp user's was never scanned. This is 
probably why I made this patch. I was (and still) running vpopmail with mysql, 
tcpserver with mysql patch.

This has proven useful if some user's computer gets infected with any email 
worm variant, the system would hopefully stop the legitimate user from using 
the server as a virus mailer relay, with the overhead costs of course...

Respectfully,
Tim Hasson
