Code for manipulating all messages matching some criteria?

[Dave McMurtrie]

>From my phone, so excuse my brevity. It might be worth your while to build cyr_virusscan.  It comes with the distribution but doesn't build by default. It should be able to scan your mail spool and remove viruses (things that match a virus signature) for you.  You could create a signature using ClamAV's sigtool if necessary.

If you are interested, I can try to help or Ken can chime in.

Hth,

Dave
