In my own travels, I found that amavis-ng integrates best (and easiest) with Courier. And I selected clamav mostly because it was free and reported to work well, based on feedback from others (some of which had tried some of the other offerings). And for spam, I do use spamassassin. In my configuration, I invoke them, in series, in my global maildroprc, though YMMV.

I do understand that it is possible to integrate other amavis variants, but I also understand that it requires quite a bit more effort to accomplish.

Having got Courier moving mail, I want to add in anti-virus and spam scanning. I've read the docs/homepages for Amavis and SpamAssassin (and Clam) - but would like some recommendations. What version/variant of Amavis (-ng, -new, etc.) seems to play best with Courier? Is a Courier/Amavis/Clamd/SpamAssassin combo a reasonable way to go or are there better alternatives? Hidden gotchas?

Feel free to email directly and I'll summarize to the list.
