Hello,

currently I'm writing a POP2SMTP Forwarder.

I'll split this version into a freeware one for small servers.
and a comercial one for bigger servers.

I wouldt like to put an AV-Solution and SpamAssassin in it.

May i put ClamAV in it?
Else people must donwload it manually.

Is there a documentation how to install only the basic?
I need only commandline and updates.

Thanks

Stefan

1. When you distribute GPL licensed source code, you must also distribute the source for that code.

2. If your code and the GPL code form a combined work (IE: linking with libclamav.dll from your binary), you must distribute the source code for clamav AND you must license your source code under the GPL as well.

If you're talking to clamscan over a named pipe or using popen(), you should not be required to license your code under the GPL and distribute the source, but you would still need to provide the option to download the clamav source.
