You get less spam than we do.
We also get around 4 Million emails per day, but only about 500K are

Also we use it successfully with libthr instead of libpthred
(through libmap.conf).

What was the procedure for that? Any pointers to docs appreciated.
I am looking at /etc/libmap.conf, is it just an entry there?
Wouldn't that be global? So all programs in the machine will use libthr
instead of libpthred?


It can be configured so as not to be global
See libmap.conf(5)

I can share my /etc/libmap.conf file if you would like an example. It is
non-ClamAv related but does illustrate how to configure using different
libraries for different programs. I believe I basically using the
/etc/libmap.conf as generously provided by the writer of the port for
the linuxpluginwrapper.

I suspsect the issue is FreeBSD's thread support, so your suggested thread
library change may help until we find a process based antivirus (if there
is one that works well with FreeBSD).

There has been much discussion about making the libthr the default threading
library.
