Hello, i would like to know if i start to use the MagicSpam, do i need to continue using Clamav and Spam assassin and manyother programs as DCC, Pyzor, Razor, Clapf to combat the spam and virus in my server?? or can i uninstall ALL of this programs and use only the MagicSpam, i think that will use less memory and cpu usage.

Thanks

Thank you for your interest in MagicSpam.

MagicSpam provides blocklists and SMTP policies you can use to block incoming messages from servers that are known spam hosts and/or are configured incorrectly, and are therefore more likely to be spam hosts. It does not have anti-virus or content-filtering capability, so we recommend ClamAV and SpamAssassin to cover those two areas. Several of our customers are doing just that to combat spam and viruses and as far as we are aware, none of them are continuing to use any of DCC, Pyzor, Razor or Clapf after switching to MagicSpam.

Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

Yes, you can add IP exemptions and add entries to the from-whitelist.

Only the administrator has permissions to access the settings and add/remove whitelist entries.
