Yes, I followed the instructions as per the website.  Following the
instructions is usually a good way to install any software  ;)  Umm...with
SQWebmail, you do need to modify it's sendit.sh script to have the
QMAILQUEUE variable set properly otherwise those messages don't get sent...I
have courier installed too, but I still installed the maildrop package.
Mcafee is the same as uvscan.  Mcafee works awesome but is very expensive to
license for a mailserver.  F-Secure was the only one the I found that didn't
license based on node/connection/mailbox counts.  It is licensed on server
counts.  Much less expensive for me.

Subject: Re: slightly OT - qmail scanner


Was the install from the qmail-scanner site followed exactly...

maildrop and perl modules, and TNEF Unpacker?

I am not 100% on the vpopmail stuff, and i dont want to mess anything up.

So, i thoiught id ask when i saw maildrop was a mail delivery ageny..
If i already have courier imap installed, do i skip this part?

And so far the scanners being suggested are F-secure, Mcafee, uvscan,
AND sophos sweep.

any comments on thoes?

thx
