From: "Damian Menscher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 06, 2005 7:05 AMMy silly university spent $0.5M on a commercial product to perform spam and virus filtering (they have the "if it costs that much, it MUST be good" mentality). And, just after they put it into production, Sober.P came out and knocked it flat. After a couple days with multi-hour email delays, people are pretty pissed. And I smell opportunity....
Nobody says clamav is for free.
I am willing to undercut them and charge you $0.4M for clamAV.
I should have mentioned that half the cost was in hardware (some high-end Sun boxes, I think). And it included spam filtering. But if I can get them to return it and switch to clamav/spamassassin, I'll do my best to get a $100k check to each team.
