Description-en: ClamAV socket-based plugin for Claws Mail
This plugin uses Clam AntiVirus to scan all messages that are
received from an IMAP, POP or local account.
.
When a message attachment is found to contain a virus it can be
deleted or saved in a specially designated folder.
.
Due to licensing issues this plugin does not link against any
libraries from ClamAV. The plugin therefore requires a ClamAV
daemon running, either on localhost or somewhere else, for the
plugin to access it via a Unix or TCP socket.
