audit log shows that viruses are bein allowed?

Postby bluemike » Wed Jan 11, 2006 4:25 pm

I just sucessfully installed Trend Micro as the AV engine for Scalix. I was looking at my audit logs and found several entries like this:

routing

Does this mean that a virus is being detected and ALLOWED? Because that's the exact opposite of what my ALL-ROUTES.VIR file says. That's configured this way:

VIRUS-FOUND=1 ACTION=DISCARD NOTIFY="Your email contained a virus and was not delivered"
VIRUS-FOUND=0 ACTION=ALLOW

Hi Mike,

As you may have noticed, all your messages say:

message-filter-info +VIRUS-FOUND=ALLOW

or at least the messages that did *not* have a virus. What this is saying is that a virus wasn't found (i.e. VIRUS-FOUND=0) and the action that was performed is ALLOW. If you see:

message-filter-info +VIRUS-FOUND=DISCARD

then it's saying a virus was found and the action taken was to discard the message.

Thanks,
Rachel
