Hi,

I have just been researching/testing a few variations with AMaViS.
(www.amavis.org)
I tried the following virus scanners:

NAI/McAfee VirusScan    - After installing a required library and a minor
edit of the amavis script, works fine.

Sophos antivirus        - Easy to install, no fiddling with libraries needed.

Kaspersky antivirus     - Took some inelegant tweaking of the amavis
script, but got it working.

In all three cases, amavis-perl-11 was used, with postfix as the MTA.
Make sure you follow the documentation, and install the required files.
(arc was 'fun' to install - the source would not compile on a Mandrake 8.1
box, but did so on a RH6.1 box, so I just grabbed the binary! Works!)

Cheers,
Frode
