While I certainly would not recommend mailscanner with Postfix (it is not supported), amavised works fine, however. You could just use the 'clamav-milter' if you so desired. That also delivers excellent results, especially when used in conjunction with the options third party signatures. See: <http://www.sanesecurity.com/download_scripts_linux.htm> if you are not familiar with it. In any case, once you accept the message, you cannot bounce it. Let your MTA handle the chore for you. -- Jerry dovecot.u...@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
