The Qmail virus scanner (QScan) is a mail filter for Qmail that scans incoming messages using the Sophos Antivirus engine, immediately rejecting infected content.

It is designed to be minimalistic, yet extremely fast and secure, and uses multiple pipes instead of the traditional temporary files and privilege separation. It works with non-native versions of the virus scanner like under OpenBSD with Linux or FreeBSD emulation.


You must create a temporary directory to extract MIME attachments, and replace Qmails original qmail-queue program with Qscan. Quick way to achieve this for the impatients :

mkdir /var/qmail/qscan
chmod 700 /var/qmail/qscan
chown qmaild:qmail /var/qmail/qscan
ln /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue-old

Now, lets compile and install Qscan :

./configure --help

./configure [your beloved flags]

make install-strip

The last step is to replace the original qmail-queue program with our filter :

rm /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
ln -s /usr/local/sbin/qscan /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue

Depending on your local configuration, it may be needed or not, but start with doing it :

chown qmaild:qmail /usr/local/sbin/qscan
chmod 6711 /usr/local/sbin/qscan

After testing, if everythings ok for you, remove the setuid bit :

chown 0:0 /usr/local/sbin/qscan
chmod 711 /usr/local/sbin/qscan

gadoyanvirus is a virus checker for qmail that works with the QMAILQUEUE patch by Bruce Guenter. gadoyanvirus scans incoming messages using the ClamAV anti-virus library.

Suspected messages are quarantined and a notification message can optionally be sent to the recipients.

samba-vscan provides on-access scanning of Samba shares with ClamAV (clamd and libclamav), F-Secure AV, FRISK F-Prot Daemon, Kaspersky AntiVirus, OpenAntiVirus.org ScannerDaemon, mks AntiVirus, NAI/McAfee VirusScan, Sophos Sweep (via Sophie), Symantec AntiVirus Engine (via ICAP), and Trend Micro (via Trophie). It supports Samba 2.2.x/3.0.x.
samba-vscan currently is made of ten Samba VFS modules:
vscan-fprotd - for use with F-Prot Daemon
vscan-icap - for use with an ICAP anti-virus service, currently only Symantec AntiVirus Engine 4.x is supported (this is alpha code and not yet for production environment!)
vscan-kavp - for use with Kaspersky AntiVirus (kavdaemon) via Kaspersky KAV client C library. vscan-kavp is a stripped-down version from vscan-kavp of Ries van Twisk). For the full-featured version please see http://www.rvt.dds.nl
vscan-mks - for use with mks32 via mks_vir Daemon
vscan-oav - for use with OpenAntiVirus.org ScannerDaemon
vscan-sophos - for use with Sophos Sweep via Sophie (http://www.vanja.com/tools)
vscan-trend - for use with Trend Micro FileScanner / InterScan VirusWall via Trophie (http://www.vanja.com/tools)
vscan-clamav - for use with Clam AntiVirus Daemon (clamd) or libclamav (http://www.clamav.net)
vscan-nai - for use with NAI/McAfee uvscan
vsan-fsav - for use with F-Secure AntiVirus (daemon)
vscan-symantec - for use with Symantec Anti Virus Engine Note: the vscan-symantec odule will statically linked against the symantec library. This lib is not covered by GPL and the resulting vscan-symantec VFS module may infringe the GPL of Samba! Due this reason, the vscan-symantec module will only be build if --with-symantec flag is used for ./configure
Enhancements:
- NEW, VERSION, ChangeLog: updated
- icap/vscan-icap.c: bugfix
- Released samba-vscan 0.3.6b

Milter-virus is not a virus scanner. It is a wrapper that can be used with many commercial and freely available virus scanners. Milter-Virust is written completely in C, and requires (few skills??).
It is run-able with the Milter interface, but then will only scan for "double extensions".
If you wish it to scan for more, you need at Ripmime or other tools to extract files from MIME-encoded emails. You also need a (command-line) virus scanner.
The difference between this program and the original is that this is much more configurable via the config file. The original version has the advantage that it is simpler and easier to bugfix.
Enhancements:
- This is a large update.
- Many problems in the statistik module were fixed.
- Some spam protection features were included.
