[Mimedefang] Anyone using File::Scan?

[Cormack, Ken]

I can say the same thing, David.

I use it, and it scores many hits per day (in addition to other antivirus
engines that I run).  But I have received no complaints from users, though I
have not reviewed anything it flagged.

I like the idea of "--enable-filescan" during configure.

I haven't reviewed any of the hits it gets, but I do use, and over the past
year or two I haven't gotten any complaints about it.
