Amavis is an open-source content filter for electronic mail, implementing mail message transfer, decoding, some processing and checking, and interfacing with external content filters to provide protection against spam and viruses and other malware. It can be considered an interface between a mailer (MTA, Mail Transfer Agent) and one or more content filters.[2]
Amavis can be used to:
detect viruses, spam, banned content types or syntax errors in mail messages
block, tag, redirect (using sub-addressing), or forward mail depending on its content, origin or size
quarantine (and release), or archive mail messages to files, to mailboxes, or to a relational database
sanitize passed messages using an external sanitizer
generate DKIM signatures
verify DKIM signatures and provide DKIM-based whitelisting
Notable features:
provides SNMP statistics and status monitoring using an extensive MIB with more than 300 variables
provides structured event log in JSON format
IPv6 protocol is supported in interfacing, and IPv6 address forms in mail header section
properly honors per-recipient settings even in multi-recipient messages, while scanning a message only once.
supports international email (RFC 6530, SMTPUTF8, EAI, IDN)
A common mail filtering installation with Amavis consists of a Postfix as an MTA, SpamAssassin as a spam classifier, and ClamAV as an anti-virus protection, all running under a Unix-like operating system. Many other virus scanners (about 30) and some other spam scanners (CRM114, DSPAM, Bogofilter) are supported, too, as well as some other MTAs.
