Hello Dallman & glad to hear from you again & I enjoyed your
Vsnag work.

I have since for many months now been using Clamav and found it
to be very thorough in catching viruses. It updates the virus
list every 15 mins -- when I started using it, the list was abour
40k+ and note now it exceeds 60k in just a few months.

You Vsnag is very good indeed, but the only "snag" problem I kept
getting was some FP attachments which I get from a lot of my Tech
writers. I just couldn't solve that issue -- probebly my fault as
one can see I am script-challenged.

That would, indeed, be easy to fix.  I have nothing against clamscan.
I'm getting almost all of the stuff out of the way first, though, without
needing to call it, in a procmail-only solution.

I will look at your suggestions and see what I can do futher with this idea 
of using Procmail to check against a target zone at dnsbl.sorbs.net.

Even if you didn't want to quarantine messages based on vsnag, you
could *still* use it and set VS_NONDELIVER = ON in the profile
file, and still have use of the variables it sets.  Not that that
is what I'm recommending.  But it's a lot less "work" than that
b0rken perl script.
