Title: Clam AV Question [SOLVED]
Post by: gbentley on September 29, 2016, 12:44:32 PM

Hi All,

Even though I have these settings for email

Virus scanning: Enabled
Spam filtering: Enabled
Executable content blocking: Enabled

I have frequently seen entries within the weekly scan log showing issues in users current mail directory. I have often wondered why this is?

Shouldn't Clam be scanning the incoming mail data stream?

ClamAV signatures are updated regularily, that's why a email can pass the AV scan on arrival, but be catched on the next ClamAV scan
