AntiVirus?

But something like clamav to protect *Windows clients*
in a GNU/Linux based server environment does makes
sense.  At least until FOSS takes over the world.

------------------------------

Virus scanning is important for those deploying SMTP
relays which may either:

- Serve Windows clients
- Relay or forward messages to outside parties who may
have Windows clients

Leaving out an AV solution seems like an amateur
mistake to make.

Of course, people can always go and fetch AV software
themselves, but if it can be included in the base
system, all the better.

We can't presume to know or expect how people will use
the system.  We can be sure that inclusion of AV
software will never be looked upon as a bad decision.
