Click the System tab, then Add Application. Choose smtp-vilter and click Next. This will allow ClamAV to scan all incoming mail for known virus signatures.
  • CHANGES/IMPROVEMENTS
    • Standalone Operation - Versions of ClamAV from 0.88.7 and higher can now be run independently of Spam Assassin. Versions prior to 0.88.7 depended on the milter bundled in with Spam Assassin. In order to scan mail for viruses without Spam Assassin you must install the smtp-vilter as explained above. Also, ClamAV can now be used to scan files on your VPS server using the clamscan command.
