by entering them in the Univention Configuration Registry variable mail/antivir/scanner. Kaspersky
and Sweep (Sophos) are currently tested. The configuration for numerous other scanners is prepared
untested, the settings can be requested from UCS support.
Following installation, the virus scanner ClamAV is active as standard. If another virus scanner
is to be used in addition to or instead of ClamAV, the Univention Configuration Registry variable
mail/antivir/scanner must be set accordingly. If several virus scanners are given they are sepa-
rated by blank spaces. Example:
univention-config-registry set mail/antivir/scanner="clamav sweep"
The Univention Configuration Registry variable mail/antivir is used to activate virus scanners with
(yes) or deactivate them with (no). Changes to mail/antivir/scanner and mail/antivir will only take effect
the next time Postfix and Amavis are restarted.
All incoming and outgoing e-mails are scanned for viruses. If the scanner recognises a virus, the e-mail is
sent to quarantine. That means that the e-mail is stored on the server where it is not accessible to the user.
The original recipient receives a message per e-mail stating that this measure has been taken. If neces-
sary, the administrator can restore or delete this from the /var/lib/amavis/virusmails directory.
Automatic deletion is not performed.
