Anti-virus, the only free one I know about is calm av. Should work on FreeBSD: http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/ and /usr/ports/security/clamav

spamd is a black/white list spam filter. I also heard SpamAssassin is good, but can't find it in ports.

For mail I like Courier-imap. It's imap, has ssl and has lots of ways to auth (I just auth with pamd which is a normal system account).
qmail is also popular, though I don't have much experience with it.
sendmail/pop3 also works.

squirrel mail is a popular webmail program: /usr/ports/mail/squirrelmail
Also, I've never used it; but webmin might be good if you want them to maintain use accounts themselves: /usr/ports/sysutils/webmin

Hello all.

I am looking documentation for implementing, the easiest way anti virus and anti spam configuration for non tech users and out of the box after installing FreeBSD (actually using 7.3 Release). I have been working with it for some years but I am not an expert at all. I need to help some non-profit organizations that received some 2 year old computers as donation and they will use it for email services. They have not tech people, so the idea is that I can help them to implement that solution the easiest way so maybe one of the teacher there can try to replicate the solution.

UNtil now I always have used Sendmail as it is installed, no filters besided the spamcop ones but that was enough for my personal use. I know some of you will tell that change to postfix or another MTA and that instead using POP3 that I have to use another tool (courier, fetchail, imap (any) etc etc). I ca do it for sur and I do not want to star a war , again, under what MTA is the best. I just would like to have the best and easiest solution for them. Once installed they only will be creating new accounts, changing paswords, deleting accounts. Nothing else. Ah, another thing if possible is to implement a webmail but that will be an extra gem if possible.

Any resources? Any suggestions based in experience? (I have one machine of them that I will use for testing the solution).

Thanks in advance
