I know nothing about H+BEDV.  In order to be useful
*with avcheck*, an antivirus should be able to run
as daemon.  Or else it's sufficient to use a simple
shell script as a content_filter - if you're speaking
about Postfix - as described in Postfix's FILTER_README.
See my email of today sent to avhcheck mailinglist
titled "AVCheck and McAfee" for an example (see
http://www.corpit.ru/pipermail/avcheck/2002-May/000609.html
for online version).

If H+BEDV is able to run in daemon mode, AND you know
it's API/protocol, it should be trivial to add support
of H+BEDV into avcheck.  If you have all the needed info
(especially protocol description), please make files
available to download somewhere and send me an url
in private -- maybe I will be able to modify avcheck
to do that (sorry I don't want to register at their
site - if that requires registration - way too much
spam I receive already from sophos, rav etc where I
registered previously).

I don't know how it is "legal", but trial version of
DrWeb is sufficient to be used with avcheck.  Sergey?
