Hi

Install the ClamAV and Mail scanner a week ago. After a restart on the server 3 days ago, I start receiving spams and virus emails again. I checked the status of mail scanner and it showed working fine?

1. Any advise on the steps i can take to make antivirus work again
2. Any spam block for installation on Direct admin?

Check here (http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3145&highlight=spamblocker), but note that this will soon become a part of DA, so you may want to wait.

hi

did the following to restart the mail scanner

service exim stop
killall exim
service MailScanner start

Couple of hours, the server crashed. Any idea where the conflict may have been?
