Hi,

Use something like this:

deny message = Wegen einem Virus / Wurm abgelehnt. / Rejected due to a virus or worm.
     demime = *
     malware = *


What did you set for your av_scanner?

Oliver

Betreff: [Exim] Exim-ACL-Patch: actions on internal virusscanner error


Hello,

we use Exim 4.24 + Exim-ACL-Patch with NetBSD (1.6.1). Sometimes (maybe every third day) our virus scanner can't finish a scan as a result of a internal sortware error. It is rarely possible (maybe one of 10.000 messages is affected). The patch code rejects than the corresponding message with a temporary failure. Also the sending host sends this message again, and the virus scanner fails again, and so forth ... Is it possible to accept messages (instead of rejecting them), if the vscanner fails with an internal error code?

Current we use the following deny rule for virus checking:

deny message = This message contains malware ($malware_name)
     malware = *
