[rt-users] Procmail???/

[Steve Thomas]

I use Amavis (http://www.amavis.org/) with the Linux version of McAfee
for virus scanning. Works wonderfully. I looked at the E-mail Sanitizer,
but didn't like it nearly as much as Amavis, which is also free. The one
thing about the E-mail Sanitizer that I did like over Amavis was the
spam filtering. I'd think that both could be used together without any
problem, although I haven't tried it.
