I've such ebuild in my private cvs, after some additional tests I can contribute it if you want.

Christian,
Yes. We like those request for ebuild bugs with attachment ;).
BTW, would a mail-filter be a good category for this one?

"P3Scan is a derived work of POP3VScan as written by Folke Ashberg <folke at ashberg dot de>.

It's intent is to provide a follow on program to POP3-Virusscan-Proxy 0.4

It is based upon his program but provides numerous changes to include scanning pop3 mail for spam, hardening the program, addaption to todays email environment, and many other changes."

TIA.

Yes, mail-filter is right for my point of view

Hm, care to share the initscript too?

[Comment 7 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2005-06-02 17:11:07 UTC]

Also, weird install error happens during src_install(), I wasn't able to find
out what could cause it:

>>> Install p3scan-2.1 into /var/tmp/portage/p3scan-2.1/image/ category mail-filter
cp: cannot stat `/usr/gentoo/overlay/mail-filter/p3scan/files/p3scan.init': No

p3scan init

Ok, p3scan is in portage now. I had to make some adjustments to both the ebuild
and the initscript, but thanks for the groundwork, Christian!

Oh, and sorry it took so long. :/
