I would like to disable Clamav / Amavis / SpamAssasin in Postfix on Debian Squeeze 6.0.8 as I have I outsourced my AV to other server.

I tried commenting content_filter and receive_override_options in /etc/postfix/main.cf (saved and restarted server) but I still see clamav and amavis process when I run top.

  • Are you sure you failed? Could it be that clamav and amavis came on top of ~top` because they were monitoring the rest of your system, not postfix?

  • Good point, any way how could I check this?

Amavis, or amavisd, is the component that relays e.mail messages to the antivirus. Since it does nothing else, and you wish to get rid of this function, you should simply un-install it.
