Yeah - and I'm getting copies _pouring_ in. By the way, for those folks
running a mailserver you may find the ClamAV project to be of some
interest. If you're not already familiar with it, of course. It's a GPL
virus scanning engine and signatures - it works wonderfully. I've just
set it up as a Milter on our mail server to supplement MimeDefang and
it's doing a brilliant job. Sendmail + MimeDefang + ClamAV +
SpamAssassin + Cyrus IMAPd makes for a wonderful combination.
