What is mainstream according to you? With due respect, it's solely your own decision on what to use, no? Have you looked at http://www.clamav.net/whos.html#pagestart ??? You may wish to, then ask yourself the same question a second time. > We currently use Sophos AV and we have a large number of corporate customers who > need some > assurance that the level of AV protection we are providing is more than > respectable.

The best for Exim is called Exiscan - http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan-acl. That is because it has been made almost an integral part of Exim. It interfaces so nicely you'd think it is part of Exim ;-) > We don't require Amavis to do anti-spam and since > our users are opt-in we can't use exiscan or something that blocks viruses at > the initial delivery stage.

I do the same thing here using procmail. You only need a condition = {scan only for these users} cheers - wash +----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+ Odhiambo Washington .
