Re: antiviruses for hpux mail server

Hi,
I'm doing it !
I'm using amavis (www.amavis.org) as a mail filter and 2 virus scanner to detect in attachment viruses. One of them is sophos (www.sophos.com), the other one is openantivirus (a GNU product) www.openantivirus.com.
And it works fine !!!
Prior to do it, my users received many viruses from attachments in email, now, all is filtered !
.....
hope that help you
