I'd have to disagree on two counts:
1/ Mailscanner plus SpamAssassin does a good job on tagging spam.
2/ F-Prot is not the only virus scanner you can use with Mailscanner.
I'd agree that using at least one (that's right, you can use more than
one) virus scanner with Mailscanner increases its usefulness
considerably.
I'd prefer it if the Mailscanner and virus scanners were separate
packages. But then, I'd prefer it if you could buy the F-Prot virus
scanner in PKG form.

Richard.
