Re: Sendmail virus scanner

["simsjs" <sims () interex org>]

If you just want to do something with attachments and not actually scan for viruses. you can try sanitizer located at 
http://mailtools.anomy.net/

This will either defang or drop emails based on attachments. You can quarentine the emails along with many other 
things. It runs in conjuntion with procmail and has faily low overhead. There is also a perl filter called Milter, but 
I haven't used this one yet. Sanitizer seems to be doing a good enough job.
