Subject: [Exim] exim4.20 with exiscan
We are using the integrated exiscan feature from exim4.20 with following
acl entry

  # Reject virus infested messages.
  deny  message = This message contains malware ($malware_name)
        malware = *


It works good. exim already rejects infected emails at the process of
receiving data of that messages (error code 500).

If the scanner daemon (sophie) doesn't work (test attempts) , exim also
rejects messages
 with error
    451 Temporary local problem.-please try...


log file entry:
2003-06-23 15:08:00 19UR39-00067U-VL malware acl condition: unable to
connect to sophie UNIX socket (/opt/mail/tmp/sophie). errno=2

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Can I specify a malware condition, which generates only a warning header
if conditions matches this situation
    Temporary local problem ...


Generated warning headers I could check with later called filter scripts
!!! ???
