Sorry, to ask this question again, but my previous message was
kind of wordy so I thought I'd try again and keep it simple.
I'm looking for advice on handling messages that contain a virus,
specifically whether to use action_discard or action_bounce in
mimedefang-filter. The documentation sez
"action_bounce is not appropriate for use with viruses,"
yet the sample filter uses action_bounce in the virus detection
portion of routine "filter" as in
action_bounce("Virus $VirusName found in mail - rejected");
and I I figured there might be good reason for this and I'm reluctant
to change it to action_discard in case something gets broken. Any
advice greatly appreciated.
