Re: [courier-users] Has anyone used courier & clam-av? What's the preferred method of integration?

[Scott]

So I got clamav to work with amavis and courier.  I doubt it's the most 
efficient possible solution, but it works with some small hic-ups.

0. Get a clamav rpm if you can.  Otherwise, at least clamav is well 
documented for install.
1. Get the amavis-0.3.12.tar.gz source at www.amavis.org.
2. Get the courier patch http://www.amavis.org/contrib/amavis-courier.patch.2
3. Patch away.
4. Due to some reason outside my understanding or patience I had to set the 
default MTA to courier in 'configure' or it defaulted to sendmail.
5. I built it with ./configure --enable-courier --with-amavisuser=amavis; make
6. Make sure /var/amavis /var/virusmails are chown amavis.amavis and have the 
correct permissions.
7. Add the following to /etc/courier/maildroprc (or where ever it is in your 
install).

  xfilter "/usr/sbin/amavis"

It works for me, your mileage will vary.  This can definately be cleaned up. 
 One slight problem is that amavis can't get $SENDER from the email in this 
incarnation.  Perhaps there is a better implementation, but until I figure 
out how to get amavis-ng to work I'll stick with this setup.  Thanks to all 
who helped.
