Thank you, if amvisd-new is the best antivirus engines for now. I will have to proceed with my amavisd-new testing.
Thank you again, Marc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kenneth Oncinian Sent: Monday, September 20, 2004 2:53 PM To: Philippine Linux Users Group Mailing List Subject: Re: [plug] Mail Scanner Marc, IMHO, Amavisd-new maybe is the best GPL frontend for antivirus engines and spamassassin for Postfix, also it is worthy to note that the author of amavisd-new, Marc Martinec is also postfix user itself. The other well known emailscanner available for postfix is MailScanner, http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/. But Wietse Venema, the author of postfix does not recommend the use of it because of the way it handles the mail queues. Also it is very difficult to get or you will not get any technical support at all from the postfix mailing list if you are using MailScanner. Tips if you will use amavisd-new: 1. Make sure you are not using an ancient version of perl. 2. Make sure to use the latest perl modules (using CPAN) 3. Make sure to use the latest version of the external programs mentioned in the INSTALL file and 4. Make sure to use the latest version of the file utility. regards, Kenneth Plug n Play wrote: > Hi all, > > > > Do you recommend amavisd-new as Virus Mail Scanner for Postfix? > > > > Or can you recommend any good Virus mail scanner for Postfix. > > > > I’m currently using Postfix + Courier Imap + Mysql > > > > Thank you, > > Marc > > > --- > Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > Version: 6.0.764 / Virus Database: 511 - Release Date: 9/15/2004 > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > -- > Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) > Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph > Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph > .. > To leave, go to http://lists.q-linux.com/mailman/listinfo/plug > .. > Are you a Linux newbie?
