[Bug 547528] Re: Repeat virus upload notification issues

 

** Description changed:

  I am running Mahara 1.0.2 on Ubuntu 8.04 Server (Apache 2.2.8, PHP 5.2.4
  and MySQL 5.0). I have the latest version of ClamAV. I am using Postfix
  running on the box to rely mail to our campus mail server and this is
  working, as users receive notifications of new personal messages.
  
  I have set 'repeat virus upload notification' to 'email' in the
  'Activity preferences' section, and I have tested that ClamAV works by
  using eicar and I am sussesfully prevented from uploading the file.
  
  Is it possible to set the number of attempts that is classed as
  'repeated attempts'? For example initially I would want an email
  everytime somebody attemps to upload a file with a virus. After testing
  I may want to reduce this to only email after 4 or 5 attempts.
  
  During the testing with the eicar test file I was prevented from
  uploading the file each time I tried it, but never received one
  notification about repeated uploading.
