AVG Linux Email Server / User Manual

Any dropped SMTP session (for example due to network outages) may lead to

files lying around in

/var/spool/qmailscan. Running the

# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl -z

command as root at least once a day will ensure such files are deleted when

they are over 30 hours old (for example the

cron utility can be employed to

perform the regular cleanup).

Note: For details on the Qmail-Scanner please refer to the http://qmail-

scanner.sourceforge.net/ website.

4.4. Testing the Installation

Successful installation of

AVG for Linux E-mail Server and the appropriate mail

content scanner (

AMAViS or Qmail-Scanner) can be tested within any supported

e-mail server by sending a message with the Eicar test file attachment. The

attachment should be removed from the e-mail, and replaced by a virus infection

notification. Refer to the

http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm website for

detailed information and the test file itself.
