You will also note that {www,ftp,mail}.sophos.com run on FreeBSD. I'm certain
we're the only anti-virus vendor to have staked our corporate Internet
presence on FreeBSD. FreeBSD ran beautifully even during the load spike
generated by the LoveLetter virus.
FWIW, we're working on a sendmail plug-in version of our main
scanning tool "sweep". At the moment, under unix, only amavis and
qmail provide any mechanism for e-mail scanning with our scanner.
Under NT, there are a number of third party tools that utilize
our virus scanning engine (SAVI).
see http://www.sophos.com for more details.
