Clamav

ClamAV is the anti-virus engine used by Mail-Toaster.

IMPORTANT: You are advised to keep ClamAV up to date. It is an integral part to enabling e-mail delivery into your Mail-Toaster. Without it functioning, your e-mail will be deferred until you correct the problem (and update).

Updating ClamAV

Notes

Note 1: To find out the installed version of clamav, run:

pkg_info | grep clamav

Note 2: You may have to set your portupgrade flags to -frkR to force dependency upgrades. Also note that you may have to manually upgrade some tertiary dependencies before attempting to upgrade ClamAV (depends on how outdated your server is).
Note 3: Some times a package won't fetch due to a mirror being down or the package doesn't exist. If this happens, do a Google search for the exact package name to locate another mirror. Fetch the file into /usr/ports/distfiles and re-run portupgrade.
Note 4: Some times an installed dependency package is replaced by a new one and it has to be manually removed. Use pkg_delete -f <packagename> to remove the old package. You may then need to run pkgdb -fu to fix the missing dependency and then pkgdb -F to properly update the database. Once you've done this, you can re-run portupgrade.
Note 5: gcc can take forever to compile. On a VM with a 2.8Ghz single vcpu, it took 3+ hours with no disk i/o problems (ie. stick with it & don't give up).
