Hi,
Anybody care to recommend a good setup for scanning messages going through
qmail for viruses.
I see in the qmail website add-ons for doing this which obviously attach to
an existing virus scanner.
Has anybody actually done it, and so can recommend a working setup?
Thanks

Does anyone else use the linavx scanning software from AVP? I did find a
way to update the definitions with it and It don't pick
up the snow white, kak vB or navidad. It did catch a pretty park but that
was it. Are there any other scanners that will scan mail already
on the system for these?

Is there a recommended virus scanner for qmail that's not too difficult to

Yes, scanning engines are going to have to get smarter and smarter to

Amavis integrates with other packages that actually do the scanning.
Amavis's job is more to unpack the mail and decode attachements, then call
