clamav-milter

Homepage: part of the ClamAV package
Supports: clamd
Nigel Horne's clamav-milter is a very fast email scanner designed for sendmail. It's written entirely in C and uses ClamAV's internal mail scanner (also written by Nigel).
Installation:
You need libmilter development files. Configure ClamAV with
    $ ./configure --enable-milter
and recompile. The program will be installed in /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter. The following instructions were adopted from Nigel's INSTALL file: add to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter',`S=local:/var/run/clmilter.sock,
F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter')
Check entries in clamav.conf of the form:
	LocalSocket /var/run/clamd.sock
	ScanMail
	StreamSaveToDisk
Start clamav-milter:
	/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -lo /var/run/clmilter.sock
and restart sendmail.
