RE: Sendmail virus scanner

[Gene LeDuc <Gene.LeDuc () mktdev tnsofres com>]

I've had great success using mailscanner (www.mailscanner.info) with sophos
on my RH server.  Another pretty popular a/v product to use with mailscanner
is f-prot; it's significantly less expensive than most of the other
commercial a/v products for use on a mail server.  Mailscanner is also
pretty effective against spam.

Mailscanner is open source and free and under very active development;
sophos and f-prot are both commercial and not free.

Hello,

  I'm looking for a virus scanner to use under sendmail. Do you know if
  there are any script or daemon to do that?.

  I want to parse all mails looking for .exe, .vbs or some others file
  attachments to block it (not to block emails, just block the
  attachment).

  Thank you for your help!


 Felix
 sorry for my poor english
