    Mailscanner works GREAT! But, people get the stripped email and there really is no need. How do I delete the virus stripped email so the user doesn't get it???

    Check our the config files in /etc/MailScanner for those settings :).

    Login to the server via SSH and do this.

    cd /etc/MailScanner
    pico -w [the_config_file]

    Thanks,

    Thanks for your help but it appears that my host didn't put it there as I get no file or directory. I'm going to have to find someone to hire.

    The host would probably know where they put it. Good luck.
