How to Install Amavis-milter for Debian Sendmail
Jean-Paul Stewart <jps@maxlingua.com>
23.10.2001
This document provides a step-by-step guide to the installation
and configuration of the Amavis antivirus software available from
on the Debian GNU/Linux operating system. It has been adapted from
the documentation available there. Amavis supports many different
methods of implementation. I have chosen to implement Amavis-libmilter
as the interface between Amavis and Sendmail. Another option with
Amavis + Sendmail, which I am not describing here, involves employing
Amavis as a sort of intermediate local delivery agent. Please be
advised that this software requires an existing CLI antivirus scanning
engine and database. The selection and procurement of such software
is not discussed in this document. There is ample information available
at the amavis.org site. These installation examples make extensive
use of the outstanding Sendmail and libmilter-dev Debian packages
maintained by Richard "
cowboy"
Nelson. Thanks Cowboy! Thank you Amavis
developers!
