Mail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew(3pm)NAMEMail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew - milter to reject antivirus messages typically sent to forged "senders"SYNOPSISuse Mail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew; my $milter = new Mail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew; my $milter2 = &VirusBounceSpew; # convenienceDESCRIPTIONThis module rejects messages at the DATA phase by searching for known signs of misconfigured antivirus software. An increasing problem on the Internet as of this writing is a tendency for viruses and trojans to send mail with a forged envelope from address. This is triggering antivirus warning messages back to these forged senders.METHODSnew() Creates a VirusBounceSpew milter object. The match rules are internally hardcoded and may be examined by reading the module source. set_message(MESSAGE) Sets the message used when rejecting messages. This method returns a reference to the object itself, allowing this method call to be chained.BUGSThe rules could be much simpler, but at risk of catching legit mail. A future release will simplify the regex tests.AUTHORTodd Vierling, <tv@duh.org> <tv@pobox.com>SEE ALSOMail::Milter::Object perl v5.8.8 2004-02-26 Mail::Milter::Module::VirusBounceSpew(3pm)
