I use Mcafee and I like it a lot...I just couldn't get it to work right under
Fedora

Subject: [Mimedefang] Question about Virus Scanners

I normally use Symantec (on Windows desktops) to protect my network from
viruses.

Im not happy with Symantec, as their current virus defs did not detect the
latest beagle virus for most of the day yesterday.  Mcafee claimed that their
defs dealt with that virus much earlier in the day.

For those of you using linux virus scanners with MimeDefang, what other vendors
had defs out as quickly as Mcafee?


Also, does anybody have good experiences in having MimeDefang call up Mcafee to
scan emails?



Thanks
