<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am using RedHat 8.0.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I want to add anti-virus and anti-spamming software to our email
server.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am currently using sendmail. To clarify,
this is going on the server and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>not on individual machines. Basically, as
email passes through this</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>machine, when a virus is found, I want the server
to send the email</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>as an attachment to an email message saying "The
attached email was </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>sent to you and appears to contain a virus.
Do not open this email without</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>talking to the sender and are assured of its
validity." The actual verbiage</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>could be different, but I do want to make sure
they get there email even</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>if it does contain a virus.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In the case of spam, I would simply like the
software to prepend </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>[spam] to the subject of those messages it thinks
are spam. It would be </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>nice if </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>the user
can train the anti-spamming virus by sending back </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>messages </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>that it
thinks are spam vs. those that are legitimate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would want the virus dictionary to be updated
very quickly. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>suggestions on a good package? Open source
and free is always</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>preferable, but given the </FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2>nature of what is required, I am just looking</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>for a good value on what I would have to pay for
the software and </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>update service.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank You,</FONT></DIV>
