Hi Martin,

 

Setup was as easy as placing clamav.cf and clamav.pm in
/etc/mail/spamassassin and the milter was happy:

 

Jan 15 21:52:44 puppy spamd[32447]: spamd: identified spam (12.4/5.0)
for dudi:502 in 4.6 seconds, 336 bytes. 

Jan 15 21:52:44 puppy spamd[32447]: spamd: result: Y 12 -
CLAMAV,CLAMAV_VIRUS,MISSING_DATE,MISSING_HEADERS,MISSING_MID,MISSING_SUB
JE

CT,RCVD_IN_SORBS_WEB,SPF_PASS,TVD_SPACE_RATIO
scantime=4.6,size=336,user=dudi,uid=502,required_score=5.0,rhost=localho
st,raddr=127.0

.0.1,rport=36275,mid=(unknown),autolearn=failed

 

Regards,

 

Dudi

Question then becomes 'how' have you setup SA to use the clamav
plugin....

Then perhaps it's time to try it. I don't condone it, but if rape has
worked for you in the past...

Well,

My goal is to reject as much as possible at the gate, so far, SA +
ClamAV plugin is proving very effective.

Without digging into MS code, I assume it calls spamd and collects the
results.

If this is true, I don't see how different configs are being used.

On top of that, I have another identical server, running the same
config, just with a very old MS version.

The above system does see all SA test & scores, I've tried everything
but rape and still could not find why this system behaves differently.

Regards,

Dudi
