Hi,
I think an anti-viral method is more efficient if the system it runs on
is not endangered (or much less endangered) by viri it is about to
filter. I do not see why do "the guys" want to split smtp and pop3 server
(in fact I only see more administration in it), but if the split has been
decided, you should use a linux server also on the pop3 job, in my
opinion. You can still use two or more virus scanners at the same time -
see qmail-scanner for example.

Re: need a thought..:
Hi..
its been two weeks that i'm using qmail. and honestly i still have a
vogue image of all this things.just following lwq.and it went fine.
we intend to have separate smtp and pop3 server. smtp using qmail on
linux redhat 6.2 and pop3 server using exchange on win2000advance server.
the guys said that reason to do this is so we have two antivirus on the
whole. companies treathened banning our mail last time cause ours were
full of virus. so the guys thinks that it would be better to separate
smtp and pop3.
is it acceptable? the reason i mean? or anyone have better suggestion ?
(any comment welcome. even flame...)
thanks
