ClamAV whitelist issue
Question asked by Heimir Eidskrem - 9/27/2024 at 2:42 PM
Unanswered
We use 3rd party signatures for clam av and have an email address that gets triggered.

I added the signature to whitelist.ign2 thats located here: \Program Files (x86)\SmarterTools\SmarterMail\Service\Clam\share\clamav

There is only one rule in that file.

I did restart smartermail after that.  It seemed to have worked for a day but now its holding for that email address.  I did check to make sure its the same rule thats triggered.

I thought I had this done right but obviously not.  

Any suggestion where I look to fix this?

Hello, 

What you did was right. ( https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a3600/reducing-clamav-false-positives.aspx ) can you share the contents of your whitelist.ign2 file with us?

Ya, nothing wrong with that format, can I start a ticket for you to get an RSAA and review your install? Or start the ticket to get a copy of the emails that are triggering that signature to test with.

It might be working now.
I have not seen the same emails being held.
Let me spend some time on that before I use your time.
