[Pkg-exim4-users] Easiest way to install antivirus and antispam on Exim 4.5 and debian

[Jose de Jesus Gutierrez Ramirez]

Hi Andreas,

Thanks, I've installed clamav and exim4-daemon-heavy packages, but I have a
question, clamd must be running as a daemon? I don't see the file
/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl, or it doesn't matter and exim start the process
each time he needs it?

TIA

Jesus Gutierrez

exim4-daemon-heavy includes the exiscan extensions for filtering.

I use something like
   deny message   = This message contains malformed MIME ($demime_reason)
        demime    = *
        condition = ${if >{$demime_errorlevel}{2}{1}{0}}

   deny message   = This message contains an attachment of a type we don't
accept (.$found_extension)
        demime    = bat:com:pif:prf:scr:vbs

.ifdef MALWARE_SCANNING
   deny message   = This message contains a virus or other harmful content
($malware_name)
        demime    = *
        malware   = *
.endif

in my acl_check_data (together with an installed clamav and
av_scanner = clamd:/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
MALWARE_SCANNING =
in the main sections, and it works well. Spamassassin can be integrated
similar.


Cheers,
Andi
