Yeap I did that.

Our config is qmail as proxy server with spamassassin and clamAV with
qmail-queue-scanner.
This proxy relay to a basic vpopmail-qmail config which deliver to the
mailbox.

It works well despite the fact that ClamAV is currently not working, but
it's surely a pb of config.

BUT, I had a huge problem a few weeks ago, when spammers, viruses and so
on started to flood the proxies ( we have two of them ). The emails were
sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc etc following an
alphabetic rule I assume. THEN the proxy is a real trouble: there is no
way to know if those users exist on mydomain.com and if they are
overquota. The proxy has to deal with all the bad email before
vpopmail-qmail reject them.
I didn't find any help about that, so I had to develop a pre-proxy which
accept or refuse the connexion regarding to the recipient by
interrogating vpopmail.

Therefore, if I would change my proxy, I would look how is implemented a
check of the recipient before the process.

Subject: [Clamav-users] Your Experience with Clamav and Proxy Server ???


Has anyone here implemented a Transparent proxy or a standard proxy 
server with virus scanning?  I am looking at implementing this and would

sure appreciate your experience!

It looks like http://dansguardian.org/ is the main clam + proxy solution

right now.  There is also http://software.othello.ch/mod_clamav/ how has

been your experience?
