I decided to pursue CLAMAV as it seems to be well maintained and lots of "links 
for dummies" turned up.

After installing CLAMAV, as supplied in the openSuse distribution, updating 
virus sigs I attempted to begin
configuring per some of the how to's.

Most are years old, have links that lead nowhere, call out config files that do 
not exist (as installed above), 
or refer to "clamd sockets" that cannot be found.

I feel sure this is old hat to more experienced souls, but, for me, this has 
been far more frustrating than I
anticipated.   

At this point, not even sure what I actually need as, as noted, there seem to 
be myriad ways to approach a 
solution. Obviously prefer the simplest method.

Subscribed just now to CLAMAV users list and should probably pursue this over 
there.  But any tutoring and
or "there there" pats on the head would not be snarled at.

Hi,
spamassassin-esp plugin has been committed to trunk and I will keep in sync
with my Github repo.

for the moment you should use your own data, Rob replied more extensively

Is there an ongoing list of compromised mailchimp domains available to
be used with this? That info is not included with the man page for
this plugin.

I also know there's another plugin developed by Paul Stead for this,
but has one yet become the defacto version yet?



Alex,

So yes - this one *is* the official/defacto version for SpamAssassin. 
This one was developed in coordination with the Apache Foundation and 
its development was partially funded by invaluement. The problem here is 
that the main developer (to his credit - this is a GOOD problem!) got 
ahead of us with the implementations. But we're in the process of 
catching up on the data-generation side, and hope to have those new 
types of data released in the next few weeks (for those ones mentioned 
in those rules, and for other ESPs that will get into those rules 
eventually).


The entire process of developing the engine that produces that SendGrid 
data - was the equivalent of our entire invaluement staff taking at 
least a full month of paid leave away from our regular duties. So that 
got us horribly behind on other things - including getting this data 
into our regular paid datafeeds with instructions sent to our customers 
for that - so we're still catching up on all of that - but we hope to 
get past that soon and to also have those /*other*/ related datafeeds 
for our "service provider DNSBL" released soon. (it won't be as much 
work for the other ones, now that the sendgrid anti-spam data engine is 
already completed - it "blazed the trail") So that explains why a few 
months have passed since the sendgrid data was released without any 
additional data being released yet, and how/why the developer of the 
rules was able to get ahead of us. (again, to his credit!)


Thanks for your patience and understanding.

SOHO system, on virtual machines.   Fairly recent versions. Running openSUSE

Due to some recent malware (obvious stuff) wanted to add AV scanning.   I gather 
"Amavis-new" is the hot ticket these days,

I deal with Sophos products and would like to use their linux product to do the 
scanning.   Seems to be precious little on how to do that.

Any experiences?


You can try with MessageSniffer:

https://www.armresearch.com/

Is an antispam/antivirus engine that can run on Linux and have a plugin 
for Spamassassin.


I'm using it, works quite well at the right price.
