Hi
Firstly, apologies. I'm feeling a little sheepish that I can't work this
out for myself!
I'm using Mailscanner with Command Software's virus scanner. Mail is being
picked up via Fetchmail. I am testing with Eicar test virus, and using
Openwebmail as my client.
Mailscanner correctly identifies that the incoming mail has a virus, and
deposits {VIRUS?} in the subject field. What I can't seem to do is get the
attachment either disinfected or removed from the message. Eicar is not in
any activated "allowed" list or other.
I have messed around with the following, and currently have them set to:
Deliver To Recipients = yes
Deliver From Local Domains = yes
Action = delete
Deliver Disinfected Files = yes
Not for the first time I feel I'm missing something obvious...
Thanks very much.
James.
