| Every mail going through our mail server is scanned by two anti-virus programs: [[http://www.sophos.com/|Sophos]] and [[http://www.clamav.net/|ClamAV]]. The double scanning combined with the fact that we update the virus databases every 30 minutes, should guarantee for a very fast response time to new virus threats. These anti-virus programs detect only real viruses and it never happened until now (to our knowledge), that a real mail was misdetected as a virus. Since most today's viruses fake the sender address, no recipient notification is sent. In this case, also no recipient notification will be sent (because it is not possible for these viruses to contain any valuable information). |
