Abstract

No matter whether you work for a large business or use email simply for family communication, you've probably received junk mail. If you have used email for any length of time, you probably know what it's like to deal with a virus. Unfortunately, fending off unwanted or dangerous electronic communication has become a daily struggle for many system administrators.

With the proper interconnection of Linux software, even a small network can be protected from the ravages of undesired email. There are actually several different combinations that can be used to accomplish this goal, but this article will focus only on one of them. Programs vary in their support for mail servers or virus detection software, but by far, one of the most versatile programs is AMaViS.
