Hello List,
I have installed Exim system filter and it works great capturing the
'victims'. Now I have only 2 questions regarding the same.

How does the filter compare to a commercial virus scanner?
Secondly, I get info and the attachments that are sent to root but
something is lacking:

    This message has been rejected since it has
        the signature of a known virus in the header.

Why does it not insert the sender of the message, but rather just gives
<>??? Wouldn't it be nice if it told me the sender_address so that I may
contact them and advise them? I am no good in coding. I wish I could do
that.


TIA
