OK, thanks guys. I know I really shouldn't ask this, tis a loaded question. But...which one is best, or recommended?
The advantage of clamav is that it is there, free, ready and waiting for an install. It will give you plenty of protection while you investigate all the other ones, at no cost and minimum hassle to you. I've used it on SuSE10 with amavisd and spamassassin and it's run without bog ups.

Thanks Mark, that sounds like good advice. Will go with that for now. Incidentally, I did notice that a backup scanner has been catching some emails with those lovely little .gif files attached. Apparently kapersky is set as a backup scanner, but I did nothing to set it up that way. I notice that they let you download the rpm, but charge a subscription fee for a key to enable their service. Not what I need for now. I'll start with clam-av. Tks, Jim
