How do I stop KlamAV quarantining the whole mail folder in my Thunderbird email client when it discovers a virus in a single email?
The mail folders are stored as individual files in the file system – that is why the entire ‘mail folder’ is being quarantined. You should exclude the whole of your .thunderbird profile directory from the Auto-Scan process or configure Auto-Scan to only Display Warnings and not quarantine all infected files. See FAQ above for generic instructions on the preferred way to configure an email client to filter viruses in incoming mail without using the Auto-Scan process.
