Software :: Setting Up Antivirus Scanning For Evolution?
Nov 17, 2010
I would like to set up a email virus scanner. I use Spamssassin and BogoFilter (Spamssassin by default).
I have now installed Clam-AV (KlamAV) for the "normal" files on my system. and see that there is a tab in there for email scanning. When i pick Evolution as my email client it tells me to set up a filter and pipe if into Klammail. I can not find Klammail anywhere. I have even looked for it in the Documentation and all i could see is that i can not run this manually.
I have found links to say that if i am using Spamssassin that this will use CLamAV be default... Im not sure if this is the case or not. of if there is another AV system i should be using to do email virus scanning.
I have wiped Windows and am running 10.04 exclusively. 32 bit, when setting up evolution e mail account i dont see where to enter password....where is it? anyone have link with screenshots? i know i can use regular hotmail but want to know how to use default ubuntu programs.
I still can't find a spot for password. options are, login, set preferences and a remember password checkbox but nowhere to enter a password
I am trying to set up my school e-mail in evolution. They use exchange 2007. When I set it up on my iPod touch, it wouldn't work unless I put in my exchange domain. Where would I put that in evolution?
I have no idea and no understanding of the configuration of Evolution I mean you need to specify something called a "server" for sending and another separate one for receiving. What does this mean? I mean there are plenty of guides that tell you how to but majority of guides of no insight to help you understand what is going on. Also I don't know about you but I find it an incredibly shallow and not to mention fraught experience following guides that contain customized elements because I never know the specifications applicable to me. You can't always just copy and paste commands as sometimes variables are tailored to the instructor's situation.
What is a "server"? What are the servers involved in having an email client?"pop3.live.com" is specified by default. What is pop3?What should I specify as my server type? How do I find out?"SMTP" is specified by default as server type. What is SMTP?What is "inet daemon"? It is mentioned in some guides.What is "hotway"?"This will set the inet daemon to listen to incoming calls on port 2500, and forward the connection to the hotsmtp daemon. Now, save your file, exit gedit, and restart your inetd server using the following command" - what is "port 2500"? This is why Linux will never be able to compete with Windows. Think how easy it is to set up Outlook. It doesn't assume obscure knowledge of technical aspects.
Is it possible to set automatic archive periodically ala outlook? My server has very limited storage so I would like to delete messages from server but keep them locally.
I am behind a university http proxy (squid) server and all of my internet connections have to go through it. I haven't been able to find any setting in Evolution that allows me to specify my proxy settings.
Searching on Google, it suggested that evolution can't work behind proxies and works only with direct connections to the internet.
I wanted to know if there is any way round this problem. I tried posting the same question on gnome list and gnome hacking list and no reply has come so far.
I have had a search for this problem, but have not found a match: undoubtedly it is so straightforward that no-one has needed to ask it before: I have two accounts in Evolution, work and gmail. I would like my work email (which I check via IMAP) to be copied locally as it comes in so that I can file it properly, but also kept on the server so that I can access through my laptop.
I have set a message filter which does the following: Code: IF status is not read THEN set status read copy to folder Inbox Stop processing The filter works (if I apply manually then it goes) AND I have set the preferences to apply filters automatically, but no joy when a new email arrives.
I'm trying to set up my gmail account with Evolution. I am trying to set up a mail client where -
1) All the mails are stored locally, so that I can work offline. When I reconnect, the client (Evolution) syncs with the server - sends emails and updates any changes.
2) All the labels/folder system to be respected and retained.
After struggling with various sites that argued Pop3 and IMAP (numerous blogs and google searches), I came across this conclusion (pls correct them if they are wrong)-
1) Pop3 allows mails to be stored locally, but will not break them up into folders.
2) IMAP will allow the folder system, but will only store the headers of mail on the local server, and the content will be downloaded as per request.
1) Will Pop3 access allow syncing between the local version and the server version? For instance, a mail read in Evolution should be marked as read when I sign into the web-interface as well.(I can always create a filter/rule that replicates gmail filters)
2) Will IMAP allow me to store all mail locally (isn't this exactly what IMAP is not!)? The combination of imap-gmail-evolution was not so successful when I tried it out - too slow!
PS: I would prefer Evolution over Thunderbird so that I can integrate the Calendar. However, if ThunderBird is the easiest solution, then it's fine too...
I've been running the Evolution mail system under Fedora-15/KDE for about a month now, and it has some very serious problems. I just noticed that it is available for SUSE, and figured that since KDE is the principal desktop supported by KDE the SUSE version may be fixed. Before I go through the very tedious process of getting the SUSE version to compile on Fedora, I'd like to know whether anyone has seen these problems with the SUSE version of Evolution:It ignores font control from the KDE Settings->Applications Appearance window, both KDE font control and GTK+ font control, also its own internal font control window.
It has trouble sending messages to an SMTP server, sometimes taking a l-o-n-g time, sometimes timing out. This can be temporarily cured by restarting it It crashes when a filter attempts to refile an outgoing message. It often asks if I want to recover messages that have never been lost. It often locks up receiving mail from a remote POP3 server. I can live with these, except for items 1 and 2, since I have workarounds. If you are fairly sure that you have not seen these problems with the SUSE version of Evolution
I had configured the evolution to send/recive email. After it had been configured, it could receive emails. Suddendly it can't fetch email anymore. In the inbox of evolution, there were about 200 emails. There are maybe 5K emails in the server, I guessed. I'm not sure whether it's the problem that there's one email in the server too big, so the evolution can not fetch it. The error of evolution is: error while fetching email. Evolution version: Evolution 2.28.0. OS version: Linux xxx2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686.PAE #1 SMP Wed Mar 3 04:57:21 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I'm sure my network is fine, I use pop3 to receive email.

i am trying to install clamav for fedora 11. i guess thats the correct antivirus---right? i went to the repository and thought i got it, but i can't find it?then i went to the clam av site and downloaded the latest 32bit for rpm. it said there were missing files and could not procede.where or how do i get an antivirus for fed 11?
I've fedora 11/12 in my desktop in home- some other members in the house also the desktop for various reasons. I noticed that there have been a lot PORNO site visits from the desktop. The computer kinda running slow- Although I tried to scan - avg and f-prot- somehow I don't see theme scanning my pc - so I can't find any kind of spyware or virus- which I think impossible since there have 100 s of visits on those free adult sites and I am sure they would leave some footprints on my machine.
i know there is no need in linux for antivirus. but i wanna to install a antivirus in ubuntu 9.10 but i dont know how give a complete step by step solution
I have been using Fedora 14, which has Evolution 2.32.1 but have recently also installed openSUSE 11.3, which has Evolution 2.30.1.2. I would like to make openSUSE my primary distribution, and so I would like to restore my Evolution settings from Fedora, but Evolution complains that the backup file is invalid. I have tried copying the folders in the backup to their appropriate locations in openSUSE with no luck. I have also tried manually copying with instructions for older versions of openSUSE, but with no luck.
An obvious guess at what might be the problem seems to be that I am trying to restore settings from a newer version to an older version? An obvious thing to try would be to upgrade to Evolution 2.32, but Evolution has a long list of dependencies so before jumping into that fun I thought I would ask if anyone else has had similar problems and found a straight-forward solution. I still have access to my emails in Fedora so this is not hugely pressing, and if upgrading to 11.4 will do the trick then I can just wait for that.
i tried to update my evolution from 2.30.? to 2.32.1 usning
ppa ppa:julenlanda/evolution
Because the exchange plugin didn't work i uninstalled evolution and removed the ppa. Now when i try to install evolution from the software centre i get this: Package dependencies cannot be resolved This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Furthermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time. it asks me if I want to repair the catalog, i say yes.
I have a web/db server running OpenSuSE 11.1, Apache 2.0, and MySQL 5.0.
What would be a good and free antivirus solution for it? I don't mind whether it's installed or runs from a website similar to housecall.trendmicro.com as long as it's decent.
I would like to run an antivirus program as the screensaver to maintain a Windows partition that my roommates use. Does anyone already know a good way to do this?
I'm new in UBUNTU and would like to get a real-time antivirus.Maybe it's not necessary, but I still want it (I've got an iMAC and have installed an antivirus... ) So, please... which antivirus is good and in real-time (I mean that, if I try to open an infected file or go to a bad website, it stops it). Is KLAMav good and in Real time?

I recently switched from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 10.10, (I chose 10.10 because I was able to make macbuntu work better on it than on 11.04.)I still have Windows 7 on my desktop. My problem is that I take the laptop to client sites and often use it to scan their hdd for viruses and for data recovery projects. I need an antivirus program which I can install on this Ubuntu machine so I can continue scanning client hard drives.
I have Symantec AntiVirus Program 1.0.2.75 w/Scan Engine 71.1.0.11 installed on a Red Hat Linux 4 server and I need to completely remove it. I haven't been able to find the documentation anywhere online that describes how to do this. I tried to ask the question on the Symantec forums but it kept asking me to choose a product, even though I already did.
I have installed RHEL5U5 but I've also tested RHEL5U4 and the problem is: Once configured the multipath, I restart the server,and with the command-ll mutipath I can see the LUN presented correctly:
