We use clamav-milter in conjunction with spamass-milter to filter virii and spam. clamav-milter is extremely easy to install and configure, and works very well "out of the box". Though, there are a few stability issues in the latest release version (in ports). My advice is to use the latest CVS snapshot from clamav.net, and subscribe to the clamav users mailing list for updates. Still, we're running clamav in production, handling thousands of messages per hour, and it hasn't missed a beat with the snapshot from a few days ago. Much better than taking support calls from the hundreds who would have been infected with the SCO worm by now. :-) - Ryan -- Ryan Thompson SaskNow Technologies - http://www.sasknow.com 901-1st Avenue North - Saskatoon, SK - S7K 1Y4 Tel: 306-664-3600 Fax: 306-244-7037 Saskatoon Toll-Free: 877-727-5669 (877-SASKNOW) North America
