[Mimedefang] 1st time setup help reqeusted...

[Mike Campbell]

As you will probably find out if you read this email I am new to setting 
up MD. I'm looking for some help to get this configured and running but 
want to do it the 'right' way from the outset.

We have a small company of <10 employees all using Outlook express for 
reading mail. The mail server is a linux Fedora FC1 machine that is 
visible to the internet and sendmail has been configured so that ONLY my 
10 users can use it as a relay. All of that is working perfectly.

Now I want to setup MD to filter spam and scan for virus files. I have 
installed spamassassin and clamav and tested them independently and they 
are both working. I have also compiled MD and it compiled/installed with 
no problems.

 From what I read all of the work for MD is done via the mimedefant.pl 
script. I am pretty good with perl so I know what is going on but the 
length of the script is a little overwhelming to start with.

Can someone give me some pointers for how to accomplish the following:
1 - Scan incoming mail for virus using clam and if found redirect the 
email to another account called virus at localhost instead of the original 
recipient? If a virus is not found then add a header to state that the 
message was scanned and found to be clean.

2 - Scan incoming messages for spam using site-wide bayes autolearning 
and auto_whitelisting? If spam is found go ahead and deliver the email 
but change the prepend subject to include '***SPAM***' and include a 
header showing the SA results. If the message is not spam then add a 
header to show the SA results.

Are there any other highly suggested tests that need to be run against 
incoming mail that others are using?

Thanks,
