Hello,

We just installed Clamwin with both hmailserver and abilitymailserver, two mailserver software that we are testing. When sending html emails, on both of them, the subject of the email was edited with VIRUS coming from Clamwin. Yet, the emails and the PCs originating/sending the emails don't have a virus (we checked with both Norton and Avast). Is there an issue with html emails and Clamwin or a setting that needs to be changed please?

Michael

What was it that ClamWin say was detected? ClamAV detects more than just viruses, it detects attempted phishing attempts and the like, most of which occur via email messages.

If you can find a specific file, you might want to upload it to Jotti at https://virusscan.jotti.org/ for a check with 20 AV programs or to VirusTotal at https://www.virustotal.com/ for a check with 32 AV programs. Clam has some html signatures but some other AVs might not.

Regards,

bone, it just adds VIRUS in the subject. It was also removing the body of the email but I changed that option so it would allow it.

GuitarBob, VirusTotal shows all OK (including ClamAV believe it or not) except for Webwasher-Gateway 6.0.1 2007.11.14 where it shows error code: BlockReason.0, any idea what that is? virusscan.jotti.org 'found nothing' for all. Thank you.

How are you scanning it on virus total? If you save the email, with all attachments embedded, in the RFC-822 (.eml extension in Outlook Express) and scan it with ClamWin it tell you what detection is being issued.
