F-Prot Troubles

>> Virus Scanners = f-prot3

I assume you really meant f-prot not f-prot3

Subject: F-Prot Troubles

I've just installed MailScanner v4.23-11 and it seems to be working well
with Spamassassin.  I've also installed F-Prot.  If I manually run a
scan against a directory, F-Prot will detect viruii.  However, when I
send a test virus through my mail server, F-Prot does not catch it.  I
have set the
following:

/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf:
[much snippage]
Virus Scanning = yes
Virus Scanners = f-prot3
Virus Scanner Timeout = 300

virus.scanners.conf:
f-prot          /usr/lib/MailScanner/f-prot-wrapper
/usr/local/bin/f-prot

[root at atlas MailScanner]# which f-prot
/usr/local/bin/f-prot

Anything else I should be doing?

Thanks in advance,

Christian
