I have installed Sendmail as my SMTP mail server, SpamAssassin as Spam Classifier and ClamAV Anti-Virus. I tested out sending my server a virus email eicar.txt
Now I am receiving the virus email in my mail and not in the quarantine folder. To find out what's wrong, I run the command below:
MailScanner --lint
The output is :
Trying to setlogsock(unix)
Reading configuration file /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf
Reading configuration file /etc/MailScanner/conf.d/README
Read 868 hostnames from the phishing whitelist
Read 5807 hostnames from the phishing blacklists
Checking version numbers...
Version number in MailScanner.conf (5.1.3) is correct.
Your envelope_sender_header in spamassassin.conf is correct.
Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...

SpamAssassin reported no errors.

If any of your virus scanners (clamav)
are not listed there, you should check that they are installed correctly
and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.
