[OT] FW: [tvdug] uvscan for Unix/Linux

Thu Feb 12 15:29:27 GMT 2004

I wonder if the on access virusscanner will cause as many problems as
norton caused on the pc when it's improperly configured. I remember one
version that simply quarantined the entire inbox when an infected
message arrived and the inbox was accessed!
I hope they don't do away with the command line version.
