Hello again, 
  I have sent this once.  And I was wondering if it just went into oblivion or no one knows what I'm alking about.  But if someone could just kinda point me in a direction to go or any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe you should have taken a look to the archives, that's the most asked question.

My original email:

  I have used mail scanner with f-prot and spam assassin for about a year now.  But what I have always wanted to do was to add people to the whitelist to keep from scanning for SPAM but I still want it to scan for viruses.  Is that possible?  I use f-prot for virus scanning.  Right now what it does is not scan it for anything at all if you put their name on the whitelist.  I've got the next to latest stable version of mail scanner and almost the latest f-prot on our current mail server - in this case I don't think that really matters as far as what I'm wanting to do.  But I will be changing it to another box I built with the latest and greatest stable versions soon.

You need to use rulesets.  See here: http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/serve/cache/230.html
 http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/serve/cache/207.html 
and the EXAMPLES file in the rules directory.

  Then I would also like to do something else.  This may need to be directed to a f-prot mailing list if someone can't help me here (I sent an email to them and they haven't responded).  What I'd like to do is to! use f-prot to automatically scan all FTP transfers.  I'm using proftpd.  Some info you might want to know is I have it set to "cage" each user into their home directory.  So if I FTP in I would go to /home/nathan.  And you can't back out of that you're caged into that directory only.  Is that possible to scan any FTP transfer for viruses?  And I would like it to email me when it finds a virus just like it does now when it finds a virus in an email.  If someone could help me figure it out I'd appreciate it.  The whitelist stuff is more important - I can worry about the scanning of FTPs till later but just thought I'd ask.  Thanks.

I don't know, but this isn't mail-related.  Why not ask proftpd's list?
