Infected files found in mail data base.

Greetings to everyone,
A few days ago, ClamXav detected infected files when scanning my mail data base. One of wich was a phishing kind of mesage, and the other was defined as a trojan. It turns out that they were mesages from 2009, by the time when i had a G5 Power PC. I've never open theme, nor clicked the links attached. Now i have a new Mac, but those mails are still in the data base; i think they migrated from my imap account. Any way, i red the ClamXav developper's page and he says that its not advisable to trash out or put this kind of files into quarantine. it bothers me that they still remain in my user's library.
Can someone give me a tip on how to cope with this issue?
Thank you!

I wish you had asked this question in the ClamXav Forum where I would have found it earlier.
Unless the infection name contains "OSX" it's almost certainly not anything that can impact your OS. But there still could be a couple of issues.
If the infection name contained the word "Heuristics" then it means that phishing message was not positively identified as a phishing attempt, but something about the way it was formatted looked suspicious enough to warn you about it. All such messages should be read before you delete them, as they could well be a false alarm.
The other question I would have asked you is what e-mail client you were using on your G5. Some e-mail clients (including Apple Mail in the early days) stored all their e-mail in one large database. If you were to delete the infected file, you would lose all your e-mail, so an alternate procedure is necessary to find and delete the message.

I can no longer compose using my exisiting e mail data base system does not pull up existing e mail addresses

Suddenly when I compose an e mail the system no longer recognizes my existing e mail data base or e mails I have sent to clients on many occasions. I have to manually pull up the e mail copy and paste it into the send section. This does not happen when I use my g mail on internet explorer.

Hi Olivier,
Thanks very much for that. it worked on my powerbook(running Tiger). I went to the link and followed the instructions and it worked. Did i mention that my dad who has a iMac running Leopard now has the same problem. I thought i would just do the same but the Preference in Mail for Leopard is of course different. There is no icon called "Server Settings" under Accounts section like there is on mine. Do you have a link for the same kind of instructions for Leopard?
Thanks again,
Bryce

What happened to the infected files found by ClamXav?

I ran a scan with ClamXav and found 15 infected files - Trojan and Phishing. I was told to rerun the scan with Quarantine turned on if I wanted to remove the files, which I di. The second scan found no infected files. I ran a third scan and still no infected files. Where are the infected files. Did ClamXav delete them? If so, what damage has been done to the mailboxes? If all the infected files were in Trash, does that make the situation better?

Actually, the message says "You can either deal with them yourself, or scan again with the preferences set to move them into a different folder."
I much prefer to deal with each file individually, rather than allow ClamXav to move anything, especially if I'm scanning e-mail content for malware or phishing. That prevents damage to my mailboxes and also allows me to check to see if the phishing e-mails are correct or false positives. In my case, almost all the phishing e-mails were incorrectly identified as such. As long as it doesn't find too many files I simply control-click / right-click on the identified file, select "Reveal In Finder" for e-mail, "Delete" for files that I'm certain are malware and "Quarantine" for those I'm not sure of and what to research.
at the time, I thought removing them was a good idea. So I reran the scan with quarantine turned on but it found no infected files. ClamXav must have deleted the infected files when I closed the program after the first scan. Is that what it is supposed to do? If so, were they placed in a folder and which one?
When you turned quarantine on in the ClamXav preferences, there was also a button to "Set quarantine folder..." after which it should have listed the path to that folder under "Quarantine infected files to:". In that same preference is another button which will "Open quarantine folder".
All that being said, I was unable to repeat your results. I ran the first scan which identified the test virus, turned quarantine on and the test virus stayed where it was first found. I ran a second scan where it was again identified, the status said "Quarantined" and when I opened the quarantine folder it was there. ClamXav takes great pains to exclude your quarantine folder, so anything that was moved to it will not be subsequently identified. So if those files are not in your quarantine folder, I have no idea where they went. You can look in your trash can, but they should not be there either.
If you remember the names of any of the files you can try finding them using Find Any File (Spotlight will probably not find them).
Lastly, I would encourage you to take future questions like this to the ClamXav Forum where you will find answers to most questions (although not all of this one) and maybe even get faster answers than here.

Why do we have a duplicate record in the .wsr file of the mail.dat?

Any idea how we could have created a duplicate record in the .wsr (walk Sequence file)? We have a post presort software that errors out because of the dupe. The Mail.dat specification indicates that there are five 'key' fields (their combination must be unique) for the Walk Sequence file:

Hi Michael
Can you please tell me which field is being duplicated and can you please try to run the job again and wait for a couple of seconds before importing it to your post presort software.
Thanks
Anita.

Generating structured XML file based on relational data base

Hi,
I need to use XML DB to generate a structured XML file based on the relational oracle database. I start by using Oracle default table, emp,
Here is EMP data,
EMPNO ENAME DEPNO SAL
123.00 E1 20.00 1,000.00
124.00 E2 20.00 2,000.00
125.00 E3 20.00 2,000.00
126.00 E4 30.00 3,000.00
127.00 E5 30.00 3,000.00
128.00 E6 30.00 4,000.00
129.00 E7 40.00 7,000.00
I used this SQL statement to generate an XML output,
select XMLElement ("Department",
XMLAttributes(deptno as "DEPARTMENTNO"),
XMLElement("EmployeeName", ename),
XMLElement("Salary", sal)
) "Result"
from
emp
where
deptno=20
The result was
<Department DEPARTMENTNO="20">
<EmployeeName>E1</EmployeeName>
<Salary>1000</Salary>
</Department>
<Department DEPARTMENTNO="20">
<EmployeeName>E2</EmployeeName>
<Salary>2000</Salary>
</Department>
<Department DEPARTMENTNO="20">
<EmployeeName>E3</EmployeeName>
<Salary>2000</Salary>
</Department>
but I need this structure instead,
<Department DEPARTMENTNO="20">
<EmployeeName>E1</EmployeeName>
<Salary>1000</Salary>
<EmployeeName>E2</EmployeeName>
<Salary>2000</Salary>
<EmployeeName>E3</EmployeeName>
<Salary>2000</Salary>
</Department>
Could you guide me how I can generate this kind of structure like master-detail structure and which document you recommend to obtain this point.
Thanks,
Shiva

Hi,
If you want to write an xml into file, I think you should use PL/SQL.
Is it even possible to spool output into file without the query itself?
doen't show me a proper xml fileTo get well-formed xml, you also have to make a root element.
If you want <?xml version="1.0"?> also then use xmlroot(), but I haven't figure out
how to specify the encoding.

Keeping images, mp3 files etc as separate data base

I have prepared material for learning German using flash animation (Adobe CS4), How do I keep my images etc separate, out of reach of the user? .

There really isn't anything you can do to prevent users from acquiring the materials if you make them available to them as part of their learning material. Even if they didn't go the route of decompiling your file(s) and finding the path to files that are loaded, screen shots and audio recorders remain as easy to use tools for acquiring things of this nature.

OS X 10.10.2 Mail.app: "GSSAPI Error: Miscellaneous failure (see text (No credentials cache file found)"

For an IMAP SSL account, I see the following error in the log every time mail.app checks for new mails:

New mails are shown but it takes quite long until they are fetched. These error lines show up several times.
What causes these errors?

Hi,
What are you trying to achieve with a single WITH clause and no SELECT?
Please see this from the documentation if you want to use it properly :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_10002.htm#i2077142
Apart from its true purpose of subquery factoring, the WITH clause is often use here and there to simulate a table content, but you'll always need a SELECT.
Maybe that's what you were trying to do?
As for your question, starting with release 10.2, Oracle provides XMLTable to shred XML documents into relational structures.
For example,
with t as (
select xmltype('<Message-Header>
<Message-Id>1234</Message-Id>
<Sender-Company-ID>4569</Sender-Company-ID>
<Sender-Company-Name>abc company</Sender-Company-Name>
<Sender-User-ID>AA</Sender-User-ID>
<Recv-Company-ID>050</Recv-Company-ID>
<Recv-Company-Name>XYZ pvt.ltd</Recv-Company-Name>
<Creation-Time>20101019 15:59:39</Creation-Time>
</Message-Header>') as xml from dual
select x.*
from t,
     XMLTable(
      '/Message-Header'
      passing t.xml
      columns
        message_id          number       path 'Message-Id',
        sender_company_id   number       path 'Sender-Company-ID',
        sender_company_name varchar2(30) path 'Sender-Company-Name',
        sender_user_id      varchar2(30) path 'Sender-User-ID',
        recv_company_id     varchar2(30) path 'Recv-Company-ID',
        recv_company_name   varchar2(30) path 'Recv-Company-Name',
        creation_time       varchar2(30) path 'Creation-Time'
     ) x
;If you're working in PL/SQL, and the XML resides in a variable, you can directly do (with necessary datatype conversion in the SELECT) :
insert into your_table ( <your_columns_list> )
select <your_columns_list>
from XMLTable(
      '/Message-Header'
      passing your_xml_var
      columns
        message_id          number       path 'Message-Id',
        sender_company_id   number       path 'Sender-Company-ID',
        sender_company_name varchar2(30) path 'Sender-Company-Name',

How do you import data base dmp file in oracle 10g

How do you run data base dmp file in oracle 10g

Examples..
Table Exports/Imports
The TABLES parameter is used to specify the tables that are to be exported. The following is an example of the table export and import syntax:
expdp scott/tiger@db10g tables=EMP,DEPT directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=EMP_DEPT.dmp logfile=expdpEMP_DEPT.log
impdp scott/tiger@db10g tables=EMP,DEPT directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=EMP_DEPT.dmp logfile=impdpEMP_DEPT.log
For example output files see expdpEMP_DEPT.log and impdpEMP_DEPT.log.
The TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=APPEND parameter allows data to be imported into existing tables.
Schema Exports/Imports
The OWNER parameter of exp has been replaced by the SCHEMAS parameter which is used to specify the schemas to be exported. The following is an example of the schema export and import syntax:
expdp scott/tiger@db10g schemas=SCOTT directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=SCOTT.dmp logfile=expdpSCOTT.log
impdp scott/tiger@db10g schemas=SCOTT directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=SCOTT.dmp logfile=impdpSCOTT.log
For example output files see expdpSCOTT.log and impdpSCOTT.log.
Database Exports/Imports
The FULL parameter indicates that a complete database export is required. The following is an example of the full database export and import syntax:
expdp system/password@db10g full=Y directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G.log
impdp system/password@db10g full=Y directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=impdpDB10G.log
