Hi I just confirmed that the error message <div><br></div><div>"Monitors For ClamAV Updates" patterns exist!</div><div><br></div><div>shows up way before the MailScanner is giving us problem. so this is not related to the problem I am facing today.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Please help me to troubleshoot this issue. I am sure this happens after clamav freshclam and restart the MailScanner. <br><div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks a lot. </div><div><br></div><br>
