Yes Mailscanner is good but you may have to jump through hoops to get it to work with BSD . No matter what OS you will still need to install a bunch of perl modules for mailscanner & spamassasin. If thats ok with you then they are pretty good. First your going to need a licensed version of sometype of antivirus application you can always get freeB's but they will eventually run out. some of the AV for BSD are panda, kaspersky,. macfee, and Sophos & fprot . Both Fprot & Sophos have evaluation versions both are easy to install and use. Your next choice is what mailscanner application to use. I have setup mailscanner with the fprot & sweep succesfully on 4.8 could not get it to work on 5.0 . I did not even try spamassasin because of all the cpan mods needed. I am using mailmonitor & sophos sweep works great I can block files or file extentions types, block subject content, quarantine infected attachments, attempt to clean them. You can go to sophos.com and fill out evalutaions for both mailmonitor & sweep . One thing mailmonitor needs to be run in linux compatibility mode and you need to install the linux versions of sweep & mailmonitor . They actually make software packages for BSD. unfourtunatly mailmonitor is targeted to linux ,solaris & Windoz .
PS I had rambled on about sophos & mailmonitor in another bsd question here is the link and here is a response from some guy in Germany or something . I guess he is using some other mailscanning software check it out. http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg65212.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg65240.html I wonder who should ever need mailmonitor in FreeBSD???? > Here we are running Sophos on several FBSD machines and we use amavis to make it scan and filter > our mails. That works perfectly and so I see no need for mailmonitor at all. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "FreeBSD Questions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2004 11:35 AM Subject: Anti-Spam app for sendmail > Any comments on a good anti-spam app that works with sendmail for a mail > server? > > -- > Best regards, > Chris > _______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > > _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
