bringing clamav into the loop?
Greetings;
Does anyone have a procmail recipe that incorporates clamav into the checks,
and one that handles the clamav output to /dev/null the viri etc?
At least I assume clamav doesn't auto-delete, I've not yet studied all the
docs, but do have freshclam running apparently ok.
Thanks everybody.

It seem that I have an amivisd-new already installed. Only html docs, which
I guess I'm gonna have to get used to. I'll take a look at them.
Thanks.

(but it handles user based scoreing and bayes WAY different)
you could check that out.

It is enabled, and a tail shows this:
procmail: Executing "clamdscan,--no-summary,--stdout,-"
procmail: Non-zero exitcode (2) from "clamdscan"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=clamdscan --no-summary --stdout -"
procmail: Assigning "CLAMAV_CODE=2"
for every msg so far. Now I need to grok what the error is. It may be that
I need to tell clamdscan who it is running as since its is not running as the
user clamav.
Thanks

Is this possible by the users of fetchmail or mpop?
I wasn't aware that a pop client has the rights to issue a 500 reject to a
pop3 server.. In addition to trying to get clamav running from a procmail
recipe, I am looking into replacing fetchmail with mpop.

Some of us use fetchmail rather than run a real server. That rather moots
your comment. (I remember helping Gene decouple SpamAssassin from his
email program. He was getting annoyed at the time it took to load emails.
With fetchmail, procmail, and dovecot or equivalents, you can do a rather
creditable job. But you cannot issue a 500. {^_-})

I like this one better ... it shows the scan results.
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/FilteringViruses
(Odd that the SA wiki's version is more complete than Clam's...)
There's also an SA plugin that can call ClamAV, see
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ClamAVPlugin
However, I highly recommend something that interacts at SMTP-time so
that a 500-series reject notice can be issued, letting the sender know
that the message wasn't delivered due to its virus/malware content (I
also feel this way about spam filtering).
Also note (and this is a current predicament on my own deployment) that
clamdscan (as well as clamav-milter, which is what I use) is incapable
of breaking some attachments out of emails; an EICAR test attached with
Thunderbird still gets delivered in all three of the above
implementations on my system.

it will only delete the msg if clamdscan returns code 1
if it errors out, it won't return code 1
running only the first part will only show it did something if you
enable procmail logging

This looks like what I had in mind. But since I don't have that part checked
out yet, would it then delete the mail because clamdscan had an error? I'll
enable the second after the first is working. :)

this works for me:

CLAMAV_CODE=$?

which mail system do you use?
I'm using this setup together with qmail-ldap and qmail-scanner, and it
works like a charm, but of course, your requirements might be vastly
different.

I don't believe the gateway I'm using (x86 version of dd-wrt) has the iron
(or storage, its booting from a cf card) to pull that off, even if I could
figure out how to make it an email proxy server.

Twould be nice, but I'd settle for a couple of lines in the procmail.log
indicating it was sent to /dev/null.

I use ClamAV-milter at MTA level at the gateway. In the new version of
ClamAV, email is not deleted, but is quarantined within sendmail itself.
I run a cron job against the sendmail queue and send myself a report on
each quarantined email, then remove them. With sendmail this is done
with these two commands:
report each:
mailq -qQ
remove from quarantine and delete:
sendmail -qQ
Very useful and the virus infected emails don't get inside my network
anywhere, which if using procmail/SpamAssassin, they would have to. My
network is protected from both the viruses and the waste of email
traffic.
HTH,
Karl
