- Description:

viruses, spam and block attachments during the SMTP conversation
so the email never makes it into your computers. It is completely
open source and uses other open source components.
Very efficient and written in C.

- NOTES:
* You have to configure your anti-virus and anti-spam products!
* You have to modify your qmail startup files to call simscan.
In most cases, you just need to edit /var/qmail/tcp.smtp in
order to call simscan instead of qmail-queue, by setting up
QMAILQUEUE variable. For example:
127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
192.168.0.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/simscan"
:allow,QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/simscan"
* Don't forget to rebuild tcp.smtp.cdb from new tcp.smtp using tcprules!
* Also, read documentation about how to configure
attachment blocking and per domain processing.
