It protects against viruses, and detects attacks against -e-mail client packages (such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora). It can -also detect almost all unsolicited commercial e-mail (spam) passing through -it and respond to all incidents in a wide variety of ways. - -Not only can it scan for known viruses, but it can also protect against unknown -viruses hidden inside e-mail attachments by refusing entry to attachments whose -filenames match any given pattern. This can include generic patterns that trap -filenames attempting to hide the true filename extension (e.g. ".txt.vbs"). - -It is superior to many commercial packages in its ability to handle attacks -against itself, such as Denial Of Service attacks caused by messages containing -the "Zip of Death". It is easy to install into an existing e-mail gateway, -requiring very little knowledge of sendmail and no change to an existing -sendmail configuration. - -MailScanner itself is entirely open source, but it uses widely known commercial -virus scanning packages at its core. The other software it uses is all high -quality open source software, leading to a system that can be trusted for -performance and reliability. - -WWW: http://www.mailscanner.info |
