    We have been using the spam/virus control setup described on AFP548 (1) for a while now. Everything works fine, but we want to update to new versions of clamAV, spamassassin etc.

    From the looks of it we are not alone, this article (1) has over 14k views, and from the activity in this forum, it seems that not all have abandoned the old gray Panther yet. So I hope this question is of somewhat general interest.

    How can we update amavisd/spamassassin/clamAV? Is it safe to just follow the instructions in the article (1) once again, only with new versions? Side effects? Things to watch out for?

    Or: Is it safe to just install the BuildSmart (2) thing – will there be conflicts with the existing installation?

    Unfortunately we do not have a test server, but I am sure someone has gone through this already. If you read this, please share your experience with us.

    TIA
