postfix for SMTP
[along with amavisd + clamav + postgrey + spamassassin]
My experience is that postgrey makes spamassassin unnecessary. I will
also confess to not using a scanner on the server.
I don't find that, but then I manage email for other people (family
mostly) who use windows desktops and are fairly clueless about what they
send/forward or who they hand email addresses out to.
I feel better about viruses being caught before delivery(so far 100%
success rate on that. I think. No one has noticed otherwise.)
spamassassin helps, too. Spammers are getting better at using proper
smtp servers that retry on soft rejects, so postgrey itself is not
sufficient alone, IME.
Although I am probably preventing all those Nigerian philanthropists
from handing out all their money. :)

Stuart
