Well, if you talk about a total newbie here, I mean in terms of setting up mail server, antivirus dan spamassassin, you'd better off with the commercial one. But, I have setup qmail+clamav+spamassassin and the performance in filtering out virus and spam is quite good. We even can train spamassassin to recognize spam using bayes probability, this is most effective. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | http://linux2.arinet.org 05:06:03 up 20:28, Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Official) for i586 public key: https://www.arinet.org/fajar-pub.key
