I just installed clamav 0.60 --with-milter (clamav-milter) on a clean FreeBSD.4.8-STABLE from the ports collection (clamav-devel) with no problems and so far (24 hours) it seems to be reliable with very-low volume testing usage. Freshclam ran easily and updated the virus files right away. Now I'll add spamassassin using the most recent version that discards messages over a certain score and combined with sendmails native anti-spam tweaks and dnsbls (spamcop and others) that should do it. ClamAV is looking real good compared to everything else I have tested. Hopefully, more people will try it, like it, and it will gain the critical mass necessary to become even more stable, have a loyal following (mail list) and be continually supported by the GPL community. -- Jim Flowers<jflowers@ezo.net> ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Jamie <jamie@gnulife.org> To: Lisa Usher <lisa.usher@integrationone.com> Cc: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Sent: Wed, 10 Sep 2003 14:33:47 -0500 (CDT) Subject: Re: Anti Virus for mail server > I would try checking out Clam Antivirus.
