We read of virus infections (new ones come out all the time) and are somehow affected by spam mail on a daily basis. While there are plenty of free and commercial solutions (available as client applications) for both nuisances, system administrators need to have a strategy for dealing with these threats well before they reach the users’ mailboxes.
In addition, if you think of it, it is much easier to install and maintain a single piece of software in a single machine (the mail server) than it is to do the same on several machines individually.
In this article we will introduce you to Sagator, an antivirus/anti-spam gateway for Linux mail servers written in Python. Among other things, Sagator provides database logging, use statistics, and daily reports for users. That said, let’s get started.
