Exim is set up with clamav and does scan all messages. I don't know a way to prevent users from moving/copying messages from other IMAP accounts into their accounts here with their MUAs, though. Is there a way to make cyrus scan all messages that are put into the spool directory via IMAP and to deny putting them there when they appear to contain a virus? ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
