Hi,

our virus scanner is based upon the amavis virus scanner scripts. A 
MA(ail) VI(rus) scanner which does unrar, unzips et cetera all mail 
before scanning. Files packed with winace however are being seen as 
plain data. For the moment I added some lines to /etc/magic so aced 
files are recognized and parked in the "sandback" for manual viewing.

The version comming along with my suse version 7.1 is not capable to 
unace some test files I made with winace. Does some of you folks have a 
solution for this alarming situation where I seem not to be able to scan 
all incomming files for virusses???

Bert.
