I'm running the stable release of clamav on a fairly heavy duty (20k mailboxes) mail server without any significant problems. Clamd seems to lock up periodically (a couple of times a week), but this isn't really a big deal, jsut means mail backs up a bit before our cron job notifies us and we just restart the process, after which it continues to chug along happily. I'm told the cvs version is more reliable, but i'm not sure if i want to trust my users mail to cvs quality source code :) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
