How to disable Clamav or Spamassassin check in amavis?

Interesting, never thought it would affect it. I just ran :

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove clamav-daemon and
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove clamav

to uninstall ClamAV, let's see how it goes, thanks again Till.

 

Actually just another quick question, should I have uninstalled with clamav-freshclam instead as per below ?

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove clamav-freshclam

Thanks

hmm so after all said and done, I used this to clear out all the Clamav stuff

Code:

apt-get remove --purge clamav*

But after that I restarted amavis and still got this in my mail-warn-log

Code:

I rescue this thread because I'm with Debian 9 in a short memory machine and I need to delete clamav although preserving amavis.

I have followed these same steps I use for Debian 8, commenting and including the code in /etc/amavis/conf.d/15-av_scanners and /etc/amavis/conf.d/90-custom
And later uninstalling clamav:
apt-get remove clamav-daemon
apt-get remove clamav-freshclam

I reboot and all works well, except these two warnings inside /var/log/syslog:

Code:

host amavis-mc[1043]: Not starting amavis-mc - edit /etc/default/amavis-mc to enable it ... (warning).
host amavisd-snmp-subagent[1052]: Not starting amavisd-snmp-subagent - edit /etc/default/amavisd-snmp-subagent to enable it ... (warning).

inside those config files the values are 0 disabled. Not touched from the original ISPC install.

Is there some new modification for Debian 9?

thx,

 

no help and I cannot find too much info. It seems one is an snmp utility, and the other one amavis-mc it is an script to start the amavis master supervisor (https://www.apt-browse.org/browse/u...w/1:2.10.1-2ubuntu1/file/etc/init.d/amavis-mc)

Specially the doubt was for amavis-mc. Reading the answer of this thread probably it can be ignored also in Debian 9:
