Antispam & Antivirus for Linux

My webhost provider has recently upgraded the cPanel to the Pro version which comes with Calm AV plugin. Hope this will make my life easier by deleting mails with virus attachments at the server end.

* Clam AntiVirus is a GPL anti-virus toolkit for UNIX. The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use with your own software. Most importantly, the virus database is kept up to date .

* Now we have integrated Full Fledged CLAM Anti virus solution . As a result all emails coming in will be filtered for viruses in realtime Even those that would be send in a zipped file ( something which was slipping through earlier. This is what Manish wrote to me yesterday.

The result of Calm AV will be better along with Spamassasin at Linux servers.
