So, basically we're trying to receive a file from an email address that is labeled a virus, but it is not.
The problem is that when clam av is unable to scan a file because it can't get past the password, it will automatically quarantine that file as a potential threat.

In your case the easiest way to get around this, is to go to your Global Options and uncheck the "block encrypted archives". This will allow all password protected zip files to get in.

I do not believe you can "whitelist" an email or a domain. However, even if you could, it would be VERY dangerous to do that, even if you completely trust that email or domain.
