[Mimedefang] Checking SPAM first before virus

2006-06-12 Thread Mathew Thomas

Hi, Mail gateway with Solaris 9 with Sendmail 8-13.6 + Mimedefang 2.44 + SpamAssassin 2.64 + Uvscan+ClamAV. The number of SPAM mail we are getting has doubled in the last 6 months and it is overloading the geteways. We drop about 150,000 spam mail (100%SPAM) and 2000 to 5000 virus mail per day.
