Re: [exisRe: Reject emails with viruses and send notification to intended recipients.

Hi

I use 'deny' in the ACL to reject messages containing virusses or unwanted
attachments.  I make sure the intended recipients are included in exim's
log file (e.g. by using $recipients in the log_message clause of the ACL).

Then twice a day a cron job is run which parses the log file and sends
each recipient a summary of all messages intended for them that were rejected.

The advantage of this is that users who get sent a lot of virusses will
only get 2 notifications a day, rather than one for each rejected message.
