Thanks for your answer. On the website, I saw that it comes with
sendmail integration. Do you think it is possible/easy tu use it with
postfix ?

I've installed a mail server (postfix) on a fedora Core 6 64 bits.
I'm looking for a antivirus solution to be placed on the mail

clamav. It's included in Fedora Extras.
YES. Been there done that at two locations, now. Works well.
I've still to try this, Phil. Is there good documentation?

We spent allot of time researching this for the first client, and when
we went to do the second, it seemed too easy.
As others have mentioned, both clamv and amavis are in extras.
Here are the relevant lines from my postfix main.cf:
content_filter = lmtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
lmtp-amavis unix - - n - 8 lmtp
smtp-amavis unix - - n - 8 smtp
It should be pretty obvious which lines go in which section.
The idea is that both inbound and outbound email are passed through the
virus checker.
amavis will use the clamv database for checking.
As I recall, the default /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf does this.
clamv may need a bit of tweaking for email reports, but thats about it.
Once you verify the postfix is working, you can remove the sendmail
packages.
The guys who rolled the packages of clamv, amavis and postfix for FC6
did a good job.
Good luck!
