Amavisd-new makes integration a snap

Get Amavisd-new to encapsulate ClamAV and BitDefender (and F-Prot and maybe a few others if you must). Then installation with no matter which mail server becomes trivially easy.
I would use BitDefender because its version 7 can be used for free on Linux.
While you're at it, throw SpamAssassin into the mix. Your users will thank you for it.
ClamAV has the advantage it also finds phishing attempts.
You can find (some very condensed information) in a mind map I created on my web site: <a href="http://www.winfix.it/EMAIL.html" title="winfix.it">http://www.winfix.it/EMAIL.html</a winfix.it>

I used this for a presentation I gave. It's in Dutch, but the links all point to info in English. The mindmap itself is available as well:

<a href="http://www.winfix.it/email_mindmap.zip" title="winfix.it">http://www.winfix.it/email_mindmap.zip</a winfix.it>

It's nicer to click through, but you'll have to install freemind <a href="http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page" title="sourceforge.net">http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Ma<nobr>i<wbr></nobr> n_Page</a sourceforge.net> yourself then.

Cheers,

Jo
