Hi all.

I've been trying to get DBMail working with sendmail ( as some of you
may remember ). I think I've had enough of that now. I'm considering
people's recommendations to use Postfix, but I'd like to know if the
following is possible ...

Currently we use CanIt ( http://www.canit.ca ) to do advanced content
filtering. The main feature that this provides ( that I'm not sure if I
can reproduce elsewhere ) is the ability to hold messages in transit
until an administrator ( ie me ) verifies that they're OK. The main type
of file that I'm interested in is zip files. We receive a lot of zip
files from customers, so we can't just reject all of them. But then we
also receive a lot of viruses inside zip files, and experience has shown
that virus scanners ( both on the mail server and on the desktop ) don't
always catch these. But I do - if I can see the email text and
attachment name, that's all I need to be able to tell CanIt to accept or
reject the email.

Is anything like this ( holding email in transit until it's given the OK
) available with Postfix? CanIt (which is based on mimedefang ) requires
sendmail ( they need the milter API, and the developers claim that
Postfix's milter isn't up to the job ).
