Domino Antivius powered by ClamAV

This project was only on hold for 12 years. -- LOL. When I wrote SpamGeek, I always wanted a matching anti-virus.
But I never found a good and free integration for Linux. Two weeks ago I discovered that "clamd" the service behind ClamAV offers a nice TCP/IP interface.
It doesn't provide channel encryption but should be OK when invoked on 127.0.0.1 (port 3310) like the Tika server used by Notes/Domino 10 and higher to index attachments.
See the ClamAV website for details: https://www.clamav.net/
First implementation & ClamAV
Clamd is native available on Linux and also for Windows so I wrote a native integration on TCP/IP level.
For now it is a servers for W32/W64/Linux64 which can scan databases. If all works well, I will integrate it with my SpamGeek application.
Beside scanning attachments it can send the full MIME stream to clamd. I am still experimenting with the different clamd scan options like heuristics.
The task by default skips larger attachments to scan whole databases. The limit can be increased.
And you can also use a remote clamd server specifying an IP address via notes.ini or command-line for testing.
The task prints the virus name along with a Notes:// link. And also generates a SHA1 used for a link to VirusTotal lookups.
You can move potentially infected mails from inbox to a virus Notes folder.
I am planning to give this away for free for smaller environments with up to 20 user. And I am not sure yet if I want to make this available for larger environments.
This has been build for my own needs first. But I am sure this would be a great fit for many small customer or business partner environments.
Beta available on request
Installing the servertask is pretty simple and by default it just scans and reports.
The more complex part is the clamd configuration. And there isn't a systemd service for clamd. I might write one.
But for testing the servertask would be already available by mail.
Here is the current syntax and a scan example from my info mail account.
What do you think? Would this be helpful?

-f Move infected from Inbox to Virus Folder
-m Also scan MIME (sent complete EML to Clamd)
-e Try to scan encrypted documents (will only work for owner of mail-file)
