If you do not have access to the Internet and are not located in a network, you
cannot send or receive e-mail.
Activate virus scanning for your incoming and outgoing e-mail with AMaViS by select-
ing that option. The package is installed automatically as soon as you activate the mail
filtering feature. In the following dialogs, specify the outgoing mail server (usually the
SMTP server of your provider) and the parameters for incoming mail. Set the diverse
POP or IMAP servers for mail reception by various users. Using this dialog, you can
also assign aliases, use masquerading, or set up virtual domains. Click Finish to exit
the mail configuration.

coming or outgoing messages and the type of mail transport.

AMaViS. Set up the type and strictness of the SPAM check.
