You mean the eicar test? That's what I used and found out it's not
detected.

Yeah, but the problem is that nothing shows up in the logfiles that
would indicate what happens. I've already set clamd to verbose
logging and now to log clean messages, and nothing shows up.


Oh! I got two external messages while writing these, and those do show
up in /var/log/clamav/clamav.log:

Does this indicate that only incoming mail is scanned, but local mail
is not? If so, why is that? Acl_check_data applies to all mail.
