New be in linux! Currently I have Install DNS, Email and Web server using centos 4.3. All functions are running properly! What anti virus and anti spam recomended for me to install to my server?
I have had very good success with SpamAssassin. I do not presently use any anti-virus software in my email path, so I can't speak to that.
What I have to configure after installing anti virus and anti spam? Would some one help me please.! Now many spam mail come to user mailbox!
You will need to inject it somehow into your mail delivery path. I do this by using procmail. I have a pipe/filter rule which runs the e-mail through SpamAssassin (using the `spamc' program to connect to a long-running daemon) and then filters based on the headers returned. My file looks like this:
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/ LOGFILE=$HOME/.maillog EXTENSION=$1 MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
:0 * EXTENSION ?? ^^spam^^|^^ham^^ |spamc -L $EXTENSION
:0 f |spamc
:0 * ^X-Spam-Flag:.*YES { # This rule puts everything with a score of at least 10 in /dev/null :0 *^X-Spam-Level: ********** /dev/null }
I then combine this with a Gnus scoring rule (client-side filter applied to POP mail downloads) to put everything with a spam score of at least 5 (the default to get a positive in SpamAssassin) in a junk mailbox.
