The only link in regards is on this page: http://www.qmailtoaster.com/
which points to http://mail.michscimfd.com/dspam/ Which isn't a tutorial really on how to make it all work.. I do think it's funny how the 2 emails below don't really even tie in together. I know dspam is better than spamassassin (or so I've heard), but his question was only about clamav.

I wonder if we can/should make DSpam available with the toaster. I remember seeing some DSpam-related posts on the toaster list, but don't recall the outcome/status. Is anyone using it or working on implementing it in the toaster? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: [simscan] Thoughts on improving performance Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2006 14:35:47 -0400 From: wtechgroup <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----Original Message----- From: Rick Macdougall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 25, 2006 2:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [simscan] Thoughts on improving performance Tom Collins wrote: > Roughly 2/3 of the email messages coming into my server right now get > rejected as spam (score >=8.0). > > Just under 1% of the email messages had a virus. > > I'm seeing that clamav is eating up a LOT of processor time on my > system, and I'm wondering about improving simscan's performance by > doing the following: > > 1) Do the spam scan first.

According to an Inter 7 tech I talked to about this same subject recently, he recommended getting off of spamassassin altogether and use DSpam (Supposedly they use it now also). He said it's much more efficient as far as resources used and it's more accurate. I've yet to test this, but we are planning to implement it within the next few weeks. I don't know if this is something you would be open to doing, but it was just a suggestion.
