💖 sagator(1) — the sgscan era 💖

okay bestie, welcome to sagator, and specifically to its little scanner gremlin, sgscan. this page is the manual for it, bestie, and we're gonna get through it together. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

sgscan — scan an file or mailbox for viruses/spams 🦠🕵️♀️

(yes it says "an file", we are leaving that exactly as it is, it's iconic, periodt)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sgscan [--help] [--config filename] [--debug level] [--clean]
[--verbose] [--quiet] [--av-only] files...

look at her. so compact. so powerful. the files... at the end is doing main character energy tbh 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This command is a part of sagator. 💅

She can be used to scan files or mailboxes for viruses/spams. and like, she can also be used to clean mailboxes — which is the move when some viruses passed through sagator (🙈 rude of them, honestly). it's giving "janitor who also does security". obsessed.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• --help — shows you a short help text. like a little "hey bestie here's the rundown" ✨
• --config filename — loads filename as the alternate config. and listen, the filename must be without the .py extension. no .py. none. don't do it. 💀
• --debug level — sets the debug level to level. you can specifi level from 0 to 9. (the manpage says "specifi", we're keeping it, it's part of the lore 🫶)
• --clean — clean all known viruses from mailboxes. bye bye pathogens, we don't know them 🧹✨
• --quiet — quiet output. if an infection/spam is found, she only increments a counter and does not display anything. silent but lethal. ninja mode 🥷
• --verbose — verbose output. also clean emails are shown, and the virus name CLEAN will be shown. so you get the full tea, including the good news ☕💖
• --progress — shows a progress indicator. it shows you the total number of emails in the mailbox, the email counter, the infection/spam count, and the estimation time. it's giving loading screen but make it informative 🌈
• --av-only — use only the antivirus scanners and do not use the antispam scanners. antivirus girlies only, spam girlies sit this one out 💅

💜 EXAMPLES 💜

Scan all mailboxes for viruses:

sgscan --av-only /var/mail/*

Scan and clean all mailboxes:

sgscan --clean /var/mail/*

literally just two lines and they ate 🔥
