I feel I am being a bit misunderstood. I simply need to configure my MX to have SpamAssassin running.I do not need any antivirus .
How do I do it ? Running RedHat Linux 8.1 and Sendmail 8.12.10 in it.
If your mailserver is relaying, it's not possible to just configure your MX to call SA.. Sendmail doesn't have support for calling command-line based external filters like procmail does.
Thus, you NEED another tool to integrate it into the MTA layer.. most MTA layer integrations are capable of calling a variety of spam and virus scanners, but you can just neglect the virus scanner part.
However, the answer of using amavis or mailscanner to handle the integration is good advice.. I personally use mailscanner.
Some people also use spamass-milter, which installs itself as a sendmail milter so it's more tightly integrated, but I've heard more complaints about it than praise.
