Hi Daniel,

The problem you're having with the reports has been reported by several
others - I think I've a workable solution which I'll test and release with
0.3.

I'll have a think about your feature request and see what I can do, probably
won't be able to do this until 0.4 though.

Kind regards,
Steve.

Thanks Steve!

The command works perfect!

Error?
My test server doesn't have a lot of emails passing MailScanner and
therefore not that much to store in the database and then for MailWatch to
work with. When I tried to create graphs though "Top Senders by Volume" or
"Top Recipients by Quantity" after just a few emails I got an error. Unable
to create graphs. No data available. But there is! This happened until the
size of the emails for an email address passed 1Mb. I get the feeling that
none of the email addresses under 1Mb counts. Could that be the case?

Request.
I'd like to be able to have a list of email addresses not to show in the
graphs. Example. I have one admin account on the top 10 list. I think that
this email shouldn't be there.

Thanks,
Daniel



Hi Daniel,

This should work:  define(VIRUS_REGEX, '/(.+) Found the (\S+) virus !!!/');

I've added it to the code for the next version.

Kind regards,
Steve.

I just have to say, Great work!!

But I need some help. How should the expression for McAfee look like?

The log look like this:

And MailWatch show:

Windows Screensavers are often used to hide viruses (dr.scr)
