RE: [AMaViS-user] Newby questions about FreeBSD 5.1 dual sendmail + ClamAV + amavisd-new-20030616-p9

[Lawrence F. <li...@ep...>]

You must have an out of date ports tree, as it has P9 in.
FYI the install sequence on FreeBSD is:

cd /usr/ports/security/amavisd-new
make install

And your done. Edit your configs to taste.
