Hi All,

	I've recently received an email/bug report (being the FreeBSD port
maintainer for Maia-Mailguard) regarding the functionality of "unrar"
during attachment scans. Below is the report I received and I'm
curious if this is specific to FreeBSD only (perhaps the version of
unrar FreeBSD ships with?) or if this is effecting other OSes as well.
Can anyone confirm their "unrar" behavior so we can determine if this
needs to be patched only in the FreeBSD port or if this needs to be
fixed upstream? Any help on this would be great!

"Maia does not scan rar attachments. It seems that
it is a version of unrar, which has a different syntax.
MAIA pass anything wrapped in RAR without antivirus check and banned
EXE files.

When I set the file maiad.conf $unrar = '/usr/local/bin/unrar v -c-
- -p- --';
then MAIA checked rar properly.

OS: FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p39
Version ports: maia-1.0.4, unrar-5.31,5, clamav-0.99.1"

Regards,
