Hi

I thought that some of you might be interested in this package:

Package: mailscanner
Priority: optional
Section: mail
Installed-Size: 560
Maintainer: Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org>
Architecture: all
Version: 3.13.2-2
Depends: exim | exim-tls | sendmail, tnef (>= 1.1.1), perl (>= 5.6.1), libio-stringy-perl, libmime-base64-perl, libmailtools-perl, libmime-perl, spamassassin (>= 2.11), libmail-audit-perl, unzip, ncftp | wget
Suggests: f-prot-installer
Filename: pool/main/m/mailscanner/mailscanner_3.13.2-2_all.deb
Size: 120102
MD5sum: 1ec06ce5abb9e19a55357d0c2115fe0b
Description: An email virus scanner and spam tagger.
 MailScanner is a freely distributable E-Mail gateway virus scanner
 and spam detector. It uses sendmail or Exim as its basis, and a choice of
 7 commercial virus scanning engines to do the actual virus scanning.
 It can decode and scan attachments intended solely for Microsoft Outlook
 users (MS-TNEF). If possible, it will disinfect infected documents and
 deliver them automatically. It also has features which protect it against
 Denial Of Service attacks.
 .
 Virus checking is disabled by default, spam checking is enabled by default.
 After installation, you can enable virus checking, write your own virus
 scanner or install one of the supported commercial anti-virus packages.

Sounds like a good package.  Know of any freely available virus scanning
engines?  Bc this may be a partial solution to the HTML suppression problem.

I went to http://www.grisoft.com as Raul suggested the other day, and I think there was a antivirus program for GNU/Linux free for personal use.
