See: Clamav Postfix Installation Before you install Clamsmtp, install and configure Postfix, create users for your SMTP server, and test if it is working.

Its archival features helps ISPs and corporations around the world with new or pending legislation, and regulatory requirements. It can archive all processed email into an archive maildir.
