Just curious,

What's wrong with a free product?  We have a P100 / 128 mb RAM machine,
running RH Linux 7.0 with Qmail/Qmail Scan behind our firewall and between
our boundary and our IMS.  It scans for both attachment types and subject
lines.  We have not had a SINGLE infection since before Melissa.  We have 5
mail servers and >1000 mail accounts.

Mailsweeper is my favorite as well.  Make sure you use the Mcafee 470 DOS
version of their AV software and use Baltimore's method of deploying it. Its
fast, efficient and reliable - it even caught the latest nasties and stopped
them as Undetermined until I have the dat in place to catch them as dirty.
Depending on what resources you have I would suggest the SMTP version
running on a separate box between your main exchange box and your firewall.

Regards

PBB

We've been mostly happy with MailSweeper from Baltimore Technologies.  It
will block attachments and scan content.  Virus scanning can be done by
hooking in a third-party scanner like McAfee, NAV or F-Secure.
