Any horror stories to support that :-) ? I thought that volatile was intented
exatly for those situations.

The only difference I see is that the Volatile source provides a
"clamav-data" package (which seems rather up-to-date). Thogh I figure
that a host with a decent internet connection would rather simply pull
the data directly from clamav's mirrors with freshclams.

Apart from that, Volatile currently only includes ClamAV, SpamAssassin
and whois/jwhois.

But this means scanning every message, ot just shlomi's ones. Which is
more work. But then again, if nobody ojects that...

Exim? Never! Postfix :-)

I figure that this is not an immediate goal.
