Let me know if you get a trial license, I'll do the same and check it out as well.

I'm already using proxmox mail gateway as outgoing server, but it does not add any special virus protection to it. It's the same clamav. It's actually more to give webui to monitor outgoing emails and logs and give this to non-technical users.

I understand that "use external service", but if we start to look at it like this then why use qmail in the first place- use it as external service and you get rid of all of the hassle :)

The one reason to have all in the house is to have control over email where they are and where they gets lost. Having services split around everywhere makes it hard to trace if client comes with "I sent email, did on arrive at inbox".

It seems that Eset Mail Security is told to be compatible with Qmail (https://help.eset.com/ems_linux/4/en-US/installation.html?scanning_of_inbound_email.html). There is something weird going on with the price of 105usd for first year and 55usd updates yearly which also gives you permission to use 5 simultaneous installations. It seems like the integration is somewhat magical.

I'd prefer the command line tool that could be fed with incoming emails and make a move according to return code.

I guess I'm going explore it myself and going for Eset linux file security. It seems that it's possible to get some trial/test licenses to check it out.

Janno - let us know what you find out - we could better virus filtering as well. Drweb and avast may have Linux / qmail versions

I used Sonicwall paid service and I know of others who have used Barracuda.

You would just set your MX record to point to the paid service MX and configure the paid service MX to route whatever domains are hosted on your QMT to it.

If you want outgoing service set up the paid service relay in QMT's smtproutes file. You'll also want to find out if the paid service does TLS if you need it.

I've also looked at things like Proxmox mail gateway and Mailcleaner (https://www.mailcleaner.org && https://www.mailcleaner.org/documentation/). If necessary you'll also want to find out if they do TLS.

I don't know anything about eset. But, if I were looking for a paid alternative for virus, I would look at relay services.


A relay service that provides virus scanning makes things very simple and once configured makes your email server administration the same as it is now. Your server just sends outbound mail to the relay and inbound traffic is routed to the relay and then forwarded to your server (your dns mx records point to the relay service).


This also makes it the relay companies responsibility to keep you off blacklists and to resolve any issues with blacklists.


I haven't done a search for relay companies, but I've thought about it. It would remove all the things that are a hassle about running a mail server, which is spam/viruses/blacklists/etc and place that responsibility on someone else.


Just my 2 cents.

Has anyone tried/using alternative (maybe paid) service for virus scanning?

I'm thinking of getting Eset file server or email for linux package. I'm really getting some viruses and Trojans going past clamav just to be hit on the head with eset workstation security. File security is around 155usd first buy and 80usd /yearly for the updates next year.

So was thinking to get the file server client and run the CLI to play ball with qmail.

Sample here: https://forum.eset.com/topic/23639-is-there-any-working-cli-scanner-for-linux/


Has anybody done that or how hard would be to add ESET to the pipeline? For me it does not seem too hard and I can make the legwork, but would rather get some input before going forward with it.

Janno
