Issue Plesk E-Mail Security Extension

[Jürgen_T]

I have installed the Plesk E-Mail Security Extension and take advantage of amavis. I have also installed separately the ClamAV what works fine via cron-commad i.e. but is shown as "stopped" in the new Plesk E-Mail Security Dashboard.

I integrated ClamAV by adding:

@bypass_virus_checks_maps = (
\%bypass_virus_checks, \@bypass_virus_checks_acl, \$bypass_virus_checks_re);
to
etc/amavis/conf.d/15-content_filter_mode

1. Do I have to add something to an additional Plesk conf-file to get ClamAV shown as running in the Dashboard (see Attachement)?

I had the same question too ... ClamAV installed and running, but still plesk refuses to see it as installed. Now, know better from googling:

• ClamAV antivirus standalone installation is not supported by Plesk
• There's a uservoice feature request opened about this since 2013, still not implemented till now ... can we assume that it's an organization policy to never implement it?
• Some users have shared recipes for manually setting up clamav:
  • Debian based
  • Centos / RHEL based

Hope others find these useful

there seems to be some confusion. don't install clamav separately. remove it if done. it is installed as part of the installation of PES.

Are you sure? In my case it was not installed as I used the unpaid version of PES but now after having installed it separately it works fine except for showing up in the E-Mail configuration dashboard?
