ClamAV Antivirus can't detect trojan horses?

Subject: ClamAV Antivirus can't detect trojan horses?


Good day from Singapore,


I have ClamAV antivirus on my Virtualmin Linux Virtual Private Server (VPS).


clamscan   80596       1  0 Dec20 ?        00:00:38 /usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf


ClamAV on my Virtualmin Linux VPS didn't alert me to any malware.


However, after I have backed up the Virtual Servers on my Virtualmin Linux VPS, I transferred the Virtualmin backup files to my Windows 11 home desktop computer.


Virtualmin backup files contain email messages of all email accounts hosted in Virtualmin.


When I extracted Virtualmin backup files on my Windows 11 PC, Trend Micro Internet Security immediately alerted to me many trojan horses, which were subsequently removed!!


But ClamAV on Virtualmin didn't alert me to any malware at all!


Do I have to manually look for malware detections on my Virtualmin Linux VPS? If so, where can I look for the malware detections?


Thank you.


Regards,


Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming

How the Singapore Government cheated my family of a HDB flat (Draft 22 Aug 2023)

Subject: How the Singapore Government cheated my family of a HDB flat (Draft 22 Aug 2023) It is a Well-Known Fact that government(s) invented mental illness to punish and torture people (and their families) who criticise the government or say bad things about the government. The Singapore Government rewarded my mother with a mental illness (schizophrenia). By leveraging mind control technology, the Singapore Government is able to make my mother hear voices in her head and trick her into believing that her neighbors are scolding her and targeting her everyday. Yes, the Singapore Government resorted to using this trickery. My mother firmly believes that her neighbors are scolding her and targeting her everyday. So we sold off our 1st HDB flat at Bedok North Street 3 and purchased another HDB flat at Yishun without careful consideration, planning and advice. When we moved to the HDB flat at Yishun, my mother still firmly believes that her neighbors are scolding her and targeting her every...
