with Sophos 9

[John Baker]

So old Sophos 4 is retired (though still seems to be getting updates at the
moment).

Sophos 9 for Linux is what they want everyone to use and ,of course, their
support seems to have no clue that anybody was using this on mailservers.

Is there an officially recommended way to do this now? Can savscan work
with Mailscanner or should I find something else?

[Valentin Laskov]

FYI clamav-0.98.3 sets new very high requirements to the hardware and used OS.

Cheers!

"- Use OpenSSL file hash functions for improved performance. OpenSSL is now prerequisite software for ClamAV 0.98.3."
and
"- Improvements to ClamAV build process, ..."

In my case, it complains about my old C compiler and does not compile. I installed Slackware 14.1 for testing. Compiling consumes
more time than before but is successfull.

About hardware requirements, I'm sorry! It's my "false positive" :) . It turned out that my testing machine has no enought RAM.

ClamAV works well for me.

I'm using Sophos 9 and oddly my experience with Sophos Support was quite positive.

Savscan works perfectly well, although in the (perhaps unlikely) event I have some time on my hands in the near future, I'm going to look at a custom plugin for the SAVDI interface, as calling savscan for each batch isn't wonderfully efficient.
