Drweb Anti-Virus Plug-In

Drweb is an anti-virus plug-in for Dr.Web for UNIX mail servers. It performs anti-virus check of electronic mail.

For proper operation of Drweb plug-in, Dr.Web CoreEngine and Dr.Web Daemon are required – they perform direct anti-virus check. Dr.Web Daemon and Dr.Web CoreEngine are included into general distribution package of Dr.Web for UNIX mail servers and must be installed before installation of the Drweb plug-in.

Messages, already segmented, are sent to the drwebd module (Dr.Web Daemon) for scanning in segments. Therefore, support of MIME processing by Dr.Web Engine, as well as by Dr.Web Daemon, is not required. Once message analysis is complete, the plug-in sends scanning results to MailD core and (if Yes is specified as a value of the AddXHeaders parameter in the plug-in configuration file) adds the following headers:

•X-Anti-virus: Name - where Name is the name and version of the anti-virus software;

•X-Anti-virus-Code - where Code is a termination code of Dr.Web Daemon.

Drweb plug-in parameters can be adjusted, by default, in the plugin_drweb.conf configuration file.
