query if mailscanner using clamscan

[simon]

Thanks Guys  for you quick reply,

Btw i did forget to mention and ask u wht new should be added to
virus.scanners.conf file since after the script was run there is a
/etc/MailScanner/virus.scanners.conf.bak file

here the clam lines for the /etc/MailScanner/virus.scanners.conf

------------------------

clamav          /usr/lib/MailScanner/clamav-wrapper     /usr
clamd           /bin/false                              /usr
clamavmodule    /bin/false                              /tmp

------------------------------------------
i guess this above file does not reference clamscan if im right..
do let me know if i hav to edit this file.
my clamscan is is /usr/bin
n clamd is in /usr/sbin

and in MailScanner.conf it says

Virus Scanners = auto

i did keep it auto as i will install bitdefender latter and would like MS
to search for the installed antivirus software

Appreciate your help

Thanks and regards

simon
