You'll really get a can of worms on this one :> Everyone has their
favorite. For me, running 3.36 w/ RH 7.3, I use
AMaViS. I like it. Suites my purposes quite nicely. I'm sure others
will recomend eximscan (or was it exiscan?). I have not used that but
if as many people are using it as it seems, it cannot be THAT bad :>

Thanks for your help. No worries. I just want a can of worms so that I can
select one from them rather than now I don't have any idea about it :-).

I use exiscan (http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan/) along with Clam
Antivirus (http://clamav.elektrapro.com/) as my command line scanner.

Well, we are using amavis with AVP scanner for FreeBSD quite a lot. I
would sugest this configuration for virus scanning mail server, but
think that someone on the list may correct me if i`m wrong.
