Hi all. Im looking a way to check outgoing mail for viruses.
Im reading http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_PROXY_README.html, and looks
like what im looking for. Im at the right path?
I hope so.
This is for a 2000 email accounts server, 20 listing mails (some of
those with 15000 users), so cant be shure if it fits into "heavy" or
"low" traffic ^^
Comments and recomendations will be appreciated.

If all you need is virus scanning, probably the easiest way to integrate
a virus scanner into postfix is with a milter.
A basic, easy to use, and free antivirus milter is the clamav-milter
bundled with clam antivirus. This will typically add a couple tenths of
a second or so to the mail processing time and works well with postfix.
there is also clamsmtp. and of course, if he intends to use spamassassin
someday, amavisd-new does both.
There are other choices - commercial products, other milters such as
j-chkmail that use clamav with additional features, the clamsmtp proxy,
or using a post-queue content filter such as the often recommended
amavisd-new.
