Once you have a working MailScanner installed on your server, open its configuration
file /opt/MailScanner/etc/MailScanner.conf (for a default location) and find the
next line.
Virus Scanners = none
Change it to the following form.
Virus Scanners = bitdefender
If you need to further customize the command-line options passed to BitDefender,
open the file /opt/MailScanner/lib/bitdefender-wrapper and change the
corresponding line, located by the end of the file.
10.2.3. Amavisd-new
amavisd-new is a high-performance interface between mailer
(MTA) and content checkers: virus scanners, and/or
SpamAssassin.
—amavisd-new website
Amavisd-new supports by default BitDefender for email scanning. All you have to do
is to make sure to install all the prerequisites (mainly additional perl modules), then
install amavisd-new according to the instructions from documentation.
Before real usage, it would be better to check BitDefender was properly detected.
Therefore, run the next command and watch for the line saying bdscan has been
found.
# amavisd-new debug
Somewhere in the output, you will see the next line.
Found primary av scanner BitDefender at /usr/bin/bdscan
This is all you have to do. You can now test the mail server integration using EICAR
emails.
