Hello all,

   I've been trying to get spamassassin and clamav working, but got
really confused when I realized there are various incarnations of the
software.  Originally, I started out with just spamassassin, but
learned there is also an SA-milter.  Can someone tell me which of the
various spam fighting packages i.e., sa, sa-milter, clamav,
clamave-milter, and so forth?


Welcome to the club.  Setting up anti-spam and anti-virus software can be a
very tedious process.  I tried various approaches over a period of months
before hitting upon our current solution. We now use MailScanner to integrate
spamassassin and clamav into our sendmail MTA.  This seems to be the least
burdensome from a maintenance point of view and still provides a useful degree
of configurability .

postfix + amavisd-new is not hard to setup:

   http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html
   http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.postfix.html

note that both amavisd-new and mailscanner rely on spamassassin for spam filtering (so spamassassin must be installed).

The MailScanner people can also point you to a reasonable fee for service
organization to assist you in setting things up..

HTH
