  I am using RedHat 8.0.

  I want to add anti-virus and anti-spamming software to our email server.
  I am currently using sendmail.  To clarify, this is going on the server
and
  not on individual machines.  Basically, as email passes through this
  machine, when a virus is found, I want the server to send the email
  as an attachment to an email message saying "The attached email was
  sent to you and appears to contain a virus.  Do not open this email
without
  talking to the sender and are assured of its validity."  The actual
verbiage
  could be different, but I do want to make sure they get there email even
  if it does contain a virus.

  In the case of spam, I would simply like the software to prepend
  [spam] to the subject of those messages it thinks are spam.  It would be
  nice if the user can train the anti-spamming virus by sending back
  messages that it thinks are spam vs. those that are legitimate.

  I would want the virus dictionary to be updated very quickly.  Any
  suggestions on a good package?  Open source and free is always
  preferable, but given the nature of what is required, I am just looking
  for a good value on what I would have to pay for the software and
  update service.

  Thank You,
  Bob Byron
