I've just gotten clamsmtp going on my linode via aptitude. It was an amazingly simple install. One thing I haven't been able to find, however, is whether it has a default virus action or whether you absolutely have to create a script of some sort. If the latter, are there any premade scripts available? Actually, any input on the virus action option of clamsmtp would be helpful.

If you decide to add scripts to do something else, heed the warning at the beginning of the sample file about avoiding remote compromises.

Whoops. I guess I should have just read the entire man page. Thanks.
