+AntiVir MailGate for FreeBSD protects your electronic post office
+against viruses.
+It is working with numerous common Mail Transport Agents (MTA),
+like sendmail, postfix, qmail and exim. Operates at high speed,
+is easy to configure and checks both incoming and outgoing emails.
+
+AntiVir MailGate is a store-and-forward agent, in which the
+workload is shared by the two programs avgated and avgatefwd.
+
+Avgated receives the emails and stores them in a specified
+directory. This program can be run as an independent server which
+occupies port 25 (SMTP) or is started by the internet superdaemon
+inetd.
+
+Avgatefwd reads the temporarily stored emails, decodes the attach-
+ments and initiates the virus scan. If no viruses are found in the
+emails, they are forwarded immediately.
+
+If an email is found to be infected, it will not be forwarded. In
+this case, the postmaster receives an e-mail with a detailed report,
+and the sender and recipient are also notified of the infection.
