    Hey all,

       My mail server seems stable, so in an effort to confuse things even
    more (er, I mean to have a secure system!) - I want to check out
    SpamAssassin and an Anti-Virus tool.

       I've used SpamAssassin in a stand-alone mode, filtering my KMail. I've
    never used it on a mail server. Right now I am running sendmail, ipopd
    and cyrus. I'm also running SquirrelMail from testing for a web
    front-end.

       Do I need to install Procmail? My thought is that Procmail,
    SpamAssassin and ClamAV would need to be added. Is there a how-to on
    this? Also, ClamAV only covers some 9900 virus. Are there other
    packages that are simple to install and use that cover a larger base
    and are simple to use?
