Configuring the Sendmail Server with Clam-AV Milter

To configure the Sendmail server with Clam-AV milter, you must create a new sendmail

configuration file with the Clam-AV milter functionality enabled through the HP-UX gen_cf

utility:

NOTE: If you have any site specific customized configuration in your /etc/mail/

sendmail.cf, ensure that the customized changes are not lost. You can backup the existing

Sendmail configuration file (/etc/mail/sendmail.cf) so that you can revert to the original

state incase of any configuration issues.

1. Obtain the backup of the existing Sendmail configuration file:

cp –p /etc/mail/sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.BACKUP

2. Execute the gen_cf utility:

cd /usr/newconfig/etc/mail/cf/cf

./gen_cf

3. Select 6: Milter: Modify (Add/Remove/List) filters under the ‘3: Anti Spamming Options’

option in the main menu.

4. Select 5: Generate sendmail.cf and press enter to generate the Sendmail configuration file

(sendmail.cf.gen) with the Milter program to be configured.
