    Ok, why? I can't see any benefit of this. Best case is that we catch a virus that has otherwise slipped. Worst case is that we waste a few CPU cycles? Or am I missing something?

    We have an antivirus software on all our corporate computers with very strong policies - why we must to check again the outgoing files on the FileTransfer? I see that clamd process permanently is on the top of CPU processes. In addition, I would like to have possibility to exlude from antivirus checks a certain file formats or extensions.

    Thanks.

    Fair enough. I'll see what we can do. Come time think of it, one thing that we could do would be to use a cache of already scanned files based on SHA1 hashes. And if a file has already been scanned it wouldn't have to be scanned again. Simple, effective, safe and no configuration necessary :)
