Thought I'd ask what people are doing now. In the past I've always
installed Mail::ClamAV to use the clamavmodule method to interface with
ClamAV. I'm wondering if this is still the best way to go when setting
up MailScanner+ClamAV[+Sendmail]...

I have one machine that is load sensitive [50K+ mails on PII 2x400mhz]
so I'm always interested in getting the best setting with the least
load. Last night I had 151 timeouts


        151 virus scanner timeout(s)
            clamavmodule: 151 Time(s)

Which was something new to me. Any input would be appreciated. [It is
also possbile that my Mail::ClamAV is a few versions old I'm checking
that out right now.]
