Yes, and they start just fine.

In fact, I was inspirational in discovering the configuration problems with it while employing TLS in Postfix. The problem is that 'clamsmtp' bogs down under load. It was causing a great many messages to get hung up in the queue when under heavy load. I finally aborted it. BTW, I now have clamav-milter working, but only for out going messages. I am tryng to discover what the problem with it is now. -- Gerard ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Keep it simple and as spam free as virus free as possible. i like the keep-it-simple approach, i've however dealt with the long config-file from amavis recently and i'm happy about the results! I have postfix running under dovecot which works fine, and I want to add the anti virus and spam rejection. on one mailserver i'm running postfix+dovecot+mysql+maildrop+amavisd-new+spamassassin, one another postfix+dovecot+clamsmtp+clamav+procmail i'm planning to move the 2nd one also to amavisd-new+spamassassin, instead of clamsmtp+clamav+procmail+spamassassin with postfix and amavisd-new rejecting all kind of binaries the need for virus-scanning is not so urgent for me, also because there's almost no windows-partition left :] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
