May be I am off the original question - if so please re-phrase it again.
Meanwhile,..
[quote from mailscanner.conf]
# Should I attempt to disinfect infected attachments and then deliver
# the clean ones. "Disinfection" involves removing viruses from files
# (such as removing macro viruses from documents). "Cleaning" is the
# replacement of infected attachments with "VirusWarning.txt" text
# attachments.
# Less than 1% of viruses in the wild can be successfully disinfected,
# as macro viruses are now a rare occurrence. So the default has been
# changed to "no" as it gives a significant performance improvement.
#
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
Deliver Disinfected Files = no
[end of quote]
The above applies mostly for so called MacroViruses. There should be a
similar setting for every major kind of a virus.
The default is to enable virus scanning, clean and warn a rcpt. Then you
could define how a rcpt is warned.
Btw, what kind of antivirus soft you utilise? It may differ from soft to
soft as well.
Best,
Arthur
