I've personally and subjectively found antispam products from people other than Julian lacking in almost every respect - from bad default settings to false positives in ranges too high to work comfortably.<br><br>I've also found that ClamAV by itself is very good - and when combined with one (or more, if hardware allows) commercial engines you get a very thin additional layer of protection that's not bad, but the licensing has to be really cheap in order to get a reasonable ROI.<br>

<p> </p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">I recently had to renew one of our
antivirus licenses for mailscanner.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">And I got to thinking, do anybody use a product
which on top of simple virus protection also</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">includes some sort of spam protection which
can be used in combination with mailscanner?</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">The reason I am asking is that a lot of the
AV companies got anti spam products so I was just wondering if</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">Any of them could be used in combination
with mailscanner to help spamassassin kill all the spam.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">Atm. we use:</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">F-secure (Which includes kaspersky’s
engine)</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">ClamAV (Obviously)</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">ESET NOD32 (Because we got a great deal
