Set Up Virus and Spam Scanning on Ubuntu 8.10
Install of Amavisd-New on Ubuntu 8.10
One of the most frustrating problems with setting up any mail server is the configuration required for anti-virus protection and Spam checking. Amavisd-new provides an excellent tool to help in setting that up. This is a step-by-step process in providing your mail server, the example is Ubuntu 8.10, with the ability to scan all incoming mail for viruses and Spam.
apt-get install amavisd-new
Starting Amavisd-New
In order to get amavisd-new running, execute the command below to view content in debug mode so you can see what it is doing. One thing you will notice is that by default there is no virus program attached nor any scanning for Spam as it is disabled by default. The point to note here is the modules that it is using, the ports, and the general look and fell of the program.
