Description

amavisd-new is a high-performance interface between mailer (MTA) and content checkers: virus scanners, and/or SpamAssassin. It is written in Perl for maintainability, without paying a significant price for speed. It talks to MTA via (E)SMTP or LMTP, or by using helper programs. Best with Postfix, fine with dual-sendmail setup and Exim v4, works with sendmail/milter, or with any MTA as a SMTP relay. 'Howto' for qmail available as well.

+7zip -p7zip, add quirk, change depends

Patch x11/gnome/file-roller and x11/mate/engrampa, because 7zip does not have p7zip's -l flag. Dropping -l fixes adding a file to a .tar.7z archive. Patch x11/xarchiver to find 7zCon.sfx in the new spot. ok sthen@
