5.3.2.6. Mail databases and plain mail
files
You can enable your Scanner to check for viruses in mail databases and
plain mail files.
The mail databases and especially plain mail files scanning modes
noticeably slow down the Scanner scanning rate. Therefore we do not
recommend their use in a regular check for viruses.
Scanner checks mail databases and plain mail files but does not
delete viruses from them.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Sun Solaris Mail Server checks mail databases of
the following formats:
•
Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express (*.pst and *.pab
files, a type of MS Mail archive);
•
Microsoft Internet Mail (*.mbx files, a type of MS Internet Mail
archive);
•
Eudora Pro & Lite;
•
Pegasus Mail;
•
Netscape Navigator Mail;
•
JSMail SMTP/POP3 server (user database).
To check for viruses in mail databases,
type
Yes
in the
MailBases
line of the profile. Otherwise, type
No
.
This parameter corresponds to the command line switch
-MD[-]
. The
switch
-MD
enables, and the switch
-MD-
disables your anti-virus
scanner to check for viruses in mail databases.
While scanning mail databases Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Sun Solaris
Mail Server checks every entry and scans attached files. The following
formats are supported: UUEncode; XXEncode; btoa (up to 5.0); btoa
5.*; BinHex 4.0; ship; NETRUN 3.10; NETSEND 1.0 (not packed);
NETSEND 1.0C (packed); MIME base64.
