Dr.Web for Kerio MailServer detects the following malicious objects:

Infected email attachments including:

Infected archives

Bomb viruses in files or archives

Adware

Hacktools

Dialer programs

Joke programs

Riskware

You can determine the types of malicious objects to be detected by setting up the anti-virus options.

Dr.Web for Kerio MailServer uses different detection methods while scanning the attached files of email messages. In case a virus is detected by Dr.Web for Kerio MailServer it is processed according to the settings of Kerio mail server.

The actions of Kerio mail server for detected malicious objects or in case the attached file cannot be scanned are specified by means of administration console for Kerio mail server in the corresponding groups of options on the Configuration -> Content Filtering -> Antivirus section or on the Action tab (depends on the version of Kerio mail server).

You can configure server to discard the message with infected attachments, allow the delivery of the message with removed infected files, forward the initial or filtered message to the administrator's email, send a warning notification or bounce the message to the sender.

You can also set up the actions of the server in case the attached file cannot be scanned, for example, when it is encrypted or corrupted. You can configure server to perform the same actions as for the infected files or to pass the file and append to the message a notification that it can probably contain a virus.

For detailed information on configuring Kerio mail server to process the checked messages see the Administrator's Guide of Kerio mail server available on the Kerio official web site at http://www.kerio.com/supp_kms_manual.html.
