Hi all. Im looking a way to check outgoing mail for viruses.
Im reading http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_PROXY_README.html, and looks
like what im looking for. Im at the right path?
I hope so.
This is for a 2000 email accounts server, 20 listing mails (some of
those with 15000 users), so cant be shure if it fits into "heavy" or
"low" traffic ^^
Comments and recomendations will be appreciated.

If all you need is virus scanning, probably the easiest way to
integrate a virus scanner into postfix is with a milter.
A basic, easy to use, and free antivirus milter is the
clamav-milter bundled with clam antivirus. This will
typically add a couple tenths of a second or so to the mail
processing time and works well with postfix.
There are other choices - commercial products, other milters
such as j-chkmail that use clamav with additional features,
the clamsmtp proxy, or using a post-queue content filter such
as the often recommended amavisd-new.
