Hello,
I would like you to write up a exim local_scan function to do virus checking
in the SMTP datastream, then reject with a 500 error and a custom message with
the found virus information.
An example of another program using this function is marc's SA.

The virus scanning can be done by SOPHIE which give a infected or not responce.
It's very fast by using the virus signatures in memory and interfacing via a
socket (/var/run/sophie) and returns a '0' if clean and '1:virusname' if
infected.

Has something like this been done before?
Does anyone have some sample (even pseudo) code.
This speak to phillip as well to consider dman's comments RE the flexability of
local_scan.
Would "Dynamic loading of local_scan" be possible?
Dave,
