Here are some commonly used av scanners: 1. qmail-scanner http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net 2. MIMEdefang ? 3. Amavis http://www.amavis.org I personally use qmail-scanner which gives you the ability to block messages that contain certain attachment types. ie. .exe, .bat, .whatever-you-want. you can also block messages based on matches to other headers as well. You can do all this without using a commercial AV but it does integrate with a whole bunch and I believe at least one opensource one. --- Ed. _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
