Hi. I'm finally moving my office's mail to a Postfix + Cyrus server (from Exchange).
The main reasons are that the project is very alive & active, the docs are incredibly detailed even if overwhelming, and it's incredibly flexible from what I can tell so far. Took me awhile, but I got the server up and it's sending and receiving mail. I added the Postscreen component out front and it's rejecting lots of spam right at the 'edge'. I'm now at the phase of looking into Anti-Virus and Anti-Spam. Looks like ClamAV and Spamassassin are the main options here. Both of those projects seem to be pretty alive and kicking too. So I'm left with how to integrate them into and with Postfix. I've poked around in all the options listed on the Postfix wiki & the common option seems to be Amavisd. Another one on the A/S side is spampd. But both of those seem to be pretty inactive. Amavisd's not had any releases or updates afaict since last October, and I was told that the author isn't really participating in it anymore (I gotta check myself on that). Spampd seems a lot simpler, but is years old afaict. My question is - if I want to Postfix-integrate A/V & A/S *AND* stick to projects that have active development and communities like Postfix, what would you recommend? I know this isn't strictly a Postfix question, but I'm hoping that all the Postfix-Gods in here might share an opinion or advice. John
