I'm trying to get Spamassassin running correctly, as well as scanning emails
for viruses, but am having some troubles.

I have followed the instructions at
<http://freshmeat.net/articles/view/857/> and am able to run the clamspan
and spamassassin tests no problem. However, I'm running into problems with
configuring amavis, and getting Postfix running right. (Postfix runs fine if
I remove the config lines indicated in the URL.)

First, the guide indicates I should have an amavis config file (at
/etc/amavisd.conf), but this does not exist. A search of my system using
"find / | grep 'amavis' " doesn't reveal any amavisd.conf file. So, I have
to assume I need to create one. But is the location correct?

Next, the guide indicates the modifications to Postfix's main.cf and
master.cf files. I've done these, and restarted Postfix. doing an
netstat -ln shows that I have port 10025 open, but not port 10024. As I
understand things (which could be wrong), this means my config will not
work.

If I uncomment the lines in the Postfix config files, then restart postfix,
I can no longer send or receive email.  Anyone have any tips or suggestions
on these issues? Thanks.

Shawn
