[Mimedefang] password protected zip archives and virus checking

[Barry Byrne]

Hi:

Using sophos to scan for viruses, password protected zip files get flagged
as viruses. The warning in the mail/quarantine report looks like:

	Here are the warning details:

	The attachment faxes.zip contains a known virus.  It has been quarantined.
	Here is the output from the virus scanner:
	Password protected file ./Work/msg-54702-92.zip/file one.doc
	Password protected file ./Work/msg-54702-92.zip/file two.doc
	Password protected file ./Work/msg-54702-92.zip/file three.doc

Anyone any ideas on working around this, other than not scanning archives?
In other words, to scan all archives, but to skip and still deliver any
password-protected files.

Cheers,

Barry
