New ClamAV v0.90

We have previously guarded against upgrading to this latest version of ClamAV as the developer of the perl module Mail::ClamAV has not updated his code to support this updated version of the ClamAV engine.However, vulnerabilities have now been published for versions of ClamAV prior to v0.90 so it seems prudent to upgrade to it now.To do this we have repackaged the ClamAV v0.90 distribution and added code to convert MailScanner to use clamav instead of clamavmodule for its Virus Scanner.The downside of this change is that there is a potential increase in server load over using the perl module method.You can upgrade now through the WHM MailScanner UI. You can ignore the Mail::ClamAV errors at the bottom of the installation procedure, but do make sure that MailScanner starts correctly and send a test message through your system (check /var/log/maillog).For anyone using MailScanner without our Front-End, you can upgrade using the same repackaged distribution with…
