Anti-virus for e-mail......
We run postfix as our MTA and cyrus as our MDA.
Our anti-virus package is f-secure (www.fsecure.com) and is updated by an
ftp script every night.
Our e-mail is dipped by amavis (www.amavis.org) between postfix and cyrus.
Postfix delivers to amavis which unpacks the message and virus-checks it
then
delivers to cyrus if it's virus-free. Virus ridden messages get dumped in
a quarantine area for me to sort out. Amavis comes with interfaces for lots
of virus scanners, but it can use any that can scan a single directory from
the command line.
