We are running Amavisd on FreeBSD w/Sendmail+Milter and using a native
FreeBSD virus scanner (McAfee VScan). McAfee VScan can be installed from
/usr/port/security/vscan.

NOTE: Ensure you update your ports collection, as the uvscan_dat port was
recently updated.  This port has a script that is used to fetch the updated
definitions.

I also created a port of Amavisd for use with Postfix (amavisd-postfix), but
it hasn't been fully tested.  The port is available from:

    ftp://ftp.westbend.net/pub/amavis/amavisd.tar.gz
