Developers of Sympa

[Luca Maranzano <address@concealed>]

Hello,

I've patched src/tools.pl to add the support for the Sophos antivirus
(http://www.sophos.com/). The patch is quite simple, and has been
written for Sympa 3.2.1, but IMHO you can manually apply it to the latest
tools.pl (add it after the last elsif in the virus_infected() function).

To use it in sympa.conf put the following:

antivirus_path  /usr/local/bin/sweep
antivirus_args  -nc -nb -ss -archive

Kind regards,
Luca
