3 MailGate Suite in Action
3.1 Characteristics of the MailGate Suite
The MailGate suite can be purchased as license upgrade to the usual MailGate
license. It is the same product. Additional functions are activated by the license
upgrade.
The Avira AntiVir MailGate Suite offers an additional AntiSpam solution.
If you want to use the MailGate Suite functionalities only a new key file has to be
installed, which activates the MailGate Suite. Afterwards you can activate the
AntiSpam option in the /etc/avmailgate.conf.
We recommend you to use the MailGate Suite as the first instance in the internal or
external mail infrastructure.
Example procedure for this configuration:
Internet

MailGate Suite

further MTA / Client (MUA)
4 Best practices
4.1 Logging
All log files are written into the syslog or into a special log file. MailGate doesn’t have
a limitation for the maximum size of the log file.
On Linux and Unix systems tools like “logrotate” have been developed which rotate
automatically depending on the values which you have configured.
