Hi @ all,
Hi Micah,
now i know what the problem is with clamscan (see text below in quote).
Strangely enough, with the same .eml files, all scans went through yesterday without any problems.
Today the very first scan caused clamscan to hang again, it just stopped scanning.
For whatever reason, this happens when a mail is only a few kb in size but has absolutely no content, I opened the affected mail with every text editor, and it was empty in all of them.
Why this mail is empty from yesterday to today I don't know.
Here one would have to investigate and build in additional error handling.
The process just hung, with no error message or log.
@Micah Snyder: should I open a ticket on github?
kind greetings
Marc
