[plug] email viri

[Paul Dean]

Hya Craig,

I have run on a small network with Sendmail and a application called
Mailscanner.

It's quite a good setup, scanners mail on the way through, will you
Sophos, McAfee. Comes in rpm and tar.gz.

Runs a controlled daemon for mailscanner and sendmail.

Hope this helps..
