Am I allowed to vote for all three components? I see value in each of them, and administrators should be able to choose what they need and don't. I would prefer it if the installation script asked during install, just like the other components do. Perhaps you can display some information, including the resource usage of each component. Of course, if the choosen MTA doesn't support the module, that question can be ommitted.
I think you could diplay quite a bit more information in the installation script about the choices. Since many people who install Openprotect may not have a lot of knowledge of each component, this could really help. In fact, an installation script with good information in it can function as effectively as a GUI interface for beginners. BTW, nice job on the installation script, it is great. I am excited about OpenProtect because I know many Unix email administrators who could use it. These are the ones that choose not to filter email for SPAM and viruses because they think it is too complicated. OpenProtect is an amazingly simple way to install and configure the most effective tools to filter email. (Don't forget to credit MailScanner, Spamassassin, ClamAV, and others).

However, the documentation is lacking some As Scott Heisler says, we the developers of openprotect are also impressed with the features of MailWatch, but the problem is it is a little bit resource hungry (mysql, jpgraph and proper support is not there for all MTAs), so can you people give your opinion about the web frontend of openprotect - whether it should be for tweaking config only (webmin), stats only(mrtg) or both (mailwatch) or maybe provide all and ask your choice at install time ? > On another note, the RPM version of mailscanner-mrtg does not work with > OpenProtect because it doesn't see mailscanner 4.0, so the install fails.

The trouble with platform independent packaging :(. cheers, Ganesh, KM. -- K.M.Ganesh | Mobile: +91 (0) 9444080290 Opencomputing Technologies | http://opencompt.com Server Side E-Mail Protection. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
