I'm struggling terribly to setup clamav to scan email , can some one please help me.

I want to use clamav-milter .

How can I check if I've got libmilter installed ?

How can I check if clamav-milter is running ?

I followed instructions on clamav.net but that doesn't seem to work. My sendmail stops working if I add the required lines to sendmail.mc.

I'm using redhat 9
I installed clamav form sources (stable)

Do you have any better AntiVirus sugjestions ? If so please tell me how to set it up.

Do you really need AV if you are running linux?
If you get an email virus it will be for windows, and you can just turn off HTML and make sure it doesnt download anything from the net wihin emails. Then dont run any attachments...with .bin or .sh or whatever...
