you can get clam* and newer spamassassin rpms from rpmforge

I suggest rolling your own SA. It's as simple as downloading the tarball and rebuilding it with the included spec file. It's a simple one-line command and documented on the download site. I suggest it because the rpmforge SA package pulls in unnecessary dependencies and has one or two problematic config options set if I remember right. clamav from rpmforge is just fine. Mailscanner can be easily installed from the repo Dan already mentioned.

Guys, acording to the quickinstall.txt guide on the mailscanner site, there is an install.sh file which installs the mailscanner rpm, all the other perl rpms. Additionally, the site has also clam av and spamassassin installers too?

any experience on these things? could just forego the rpms from the rpmforge repo?

Guys,

What repo has rpms for mailscanner, clamav and spamassasin?

RPMforge has clamav and spamassassin, but not mailscanner.

Mailscanner has RPMs available on their site.

I did an install a few weeks back. I installed clamd from rpmforge, as suggested from folks on mailscanner list.

You can install mailscanner wiht this repo. http://yum.vanderkooij.org/el5/

Don't install mailscanner on Centos via the install.sh script. It will overwrite some perl packages. Trust me I did it. As suggested to me by Kai. With rpmforge enabled install these packages via yum.

yum install perl-Convert-BinHex perl-Convert-TNEF perl-Convert-BinHex perl-Convert-TNEF perl-DBD-SQLite perl-Filesys-Df perl-IO-stringy perl- MIME-tools perl-Net-CIDR perl-OLE-Storage_Lite perl-Pod-Escapes perl-Pod- Simple perl-Test-Pod perl-Time-HiRes

then install mailscanner*.rpm
