One russian company (Kaspersky lab) that was famous as creator of
high-quality antivirus software for DOS (when I tracked it) has a beta of
antivirus suite for sendmail on Linux - try visiting www.avp.ru . As I heard,
author(s) are DOS and probably Windows wizards, but they have a low experience
with Unix and linux - so be warned and don't expect very much from linux
version.
It would be nice if you post your impression about their software.
