Okay, before I try to write down how I did it I will outline the
requirements.

The requirements are:
- Commercial virus scanner (Iused Sophos because the University has a site
license)
 Supported virus scanners are:
    Network Associates Virus Scan
    1.2 DrSolomon (obsolete)
    H+BEDV AntiVir/X
    Sophos Sweep
    Kaspersky Lab AntiViral Toolkit Pro (AVP)
    CyberSoft VFind
    Trend Micro FileScanner
    CAI InoculateIT
    F-Secure Inc. (former DataFellows) F-Secure AV

Even the Trend Micro which often outlined as 'free' for personal used under
Linux costs about 1.200€ per 50 seat license.

- The Amavis 0.2.1 isn't available as an .rpm, you have to install a
compiler (can give a list what I installed).
- To scan also compressed and/or coded attachments you have to install 12
decompress rpms (easy).

Now, if it is still interesting for any e-smith users I will provide a more
detailed step by step manual.
