Q: clamav installation outdated
While investigating why our e-mail server lets lots of suspicious files through I found these comments in the log file.
I only installed the server six days ago and it has all updates installed. It appears that there is a 0.99 version available on the clamav website but that hasn't made it into Server 5 as yet.
We want to replace a 10.5 server with 10.11 running Server 5 but some internally are asking if clam is up to the job as they report it has one of the lowest detection rates at 36%. I'm wondering if it was to be updated would it find more?
Regards, Rob.
