You mean you want to send a notice to the intended recipient AND a notice
to the *APPARENT* (and these days, generally *FORGED*) sender?
I won't demonstrate how to send a message to the apparent sender for this
purpose - by doing so, you'd be contributing to the problem caused by these
viruses -- the apparent sender has quite enough grief because of BOUNCES
they receive on behalf of some OTHER nimrod who infected their own computer
and who is forging messages with the innocent party's email address on
them. I gleefully DNSBL the servers of companies that run idiotic A/V
software that does this very thing (software which should know well enough
that the virus they detected uses forged addresses for the envelope sender).
Search the procmail archives for "bouncer.rc", review it, and then and use
something like:
# in your detection code, set VIRUSNAME to whatever your other filters have
# determined the virus to be, or perhaps "GENERIC EXECUTABLE" or
# "MYDOOM OR VARIANT", etc.
:0
* ! VIRUSNAME ?? ^^^^
{
BOUNCER=someviralnotificationaddress(_at_)yourdomain(_dot_)tld
REPLYTO=$LOGNAME
BOUNCEMSG=virus.msg
BOUNCESUBJ="virus or suspect message rejected [$VIRUSNAME]"
# include the generic bouncer code.
INCLUDERC=bouncer.rc
}
(some additional variables may need to be set, but none spring to mind)
