AMaViS isn't an antivirus pre say. It's an email virus scanner, but it requires an actual virus scanning engine to work with it. It is good at what it does but it's not a complete solution in itself. There are many different companies that make virus scanners for Linux and most of them will work with AMaViS. NAI Virusscan, H+BEDV AntiVir/X, Sophos Sweep, Kaspersky Lab AVP, Cybersoft VFind, Trend Micro FileScanner, CAI InoculateIT, and F-Secure AV are known to work with AMaViS. I personally like Sophos Sweep. However, if you do decide to use AMaViS make sure you used either amavisd or amavis-perl. The older original AMaViS is no longer being developed and is quite slow and feature weak compared to the other two. -Jeremy Jeremy Fowler 801 W. 47th St, Suite 500 Kansas City, MO 64112 Phone: (816) 842-8222 Fax: (816) 842-3081 jfowler@westrope.com >>> "Brian Densmore" 04/05/02 10:29AM >>> From: Brian Densmore" Sent: Friday, April 05, 2002 10:29 AM To: Subject: RE: virus protection Priority: Normal I hear good things about Amavis. [It is the one I am installing] There are really a lot of others out there now. I'm sure many are excellent programs.
