So you need an MTA that is compatible with the milter interface of sendmail. As far as I know postfix supports (or will be in the future) sendmail mitler plugins. For other MTAs I have no idea. There are a lot of different kinds of milters. Not only milters for SpamAssassin and ClamAV. Milters are setup easily in sendmail. Far more easer then setting up sendmail + amavis and you have a performance improvement. And by using milters you can use the standard configuration files for the programms you use. That means for example you configure /etc/spamassassin/* and /etc/clamav/* if you use these milters. Not /etc/amavis/* and things in the home dir of the amavis user. Maybe this is not so important for people reading this but I know SysAdmins that do not cope with the Amavis configuration very well.

In the past I had configured both and both work well. And if you are the only MailAdmin on the system you should choose what you know best. - -- Michael Zoet System- und Netzwerk-Administration Schwedenstr. 18c 13357 Berlin Tel.: 0163 48 11 626 Tel.: 030 49 79 56 81 Webseite: http://zoet.de E-Mail: [email protected] Jabber: [email protected] Ubuntu Deutschland e.V.
