To integrate Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server with Exim:

  1. Select the type of integration with the Exim mail server:
    • If you want to perform before-queue integration of Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server with Exim using a dynamically loaded library (dlfunc), enter the number 1.

      Make sure that the Exim mail server supports dlfunc-based content filtering. To do so, run the exim -bV command. The following represents a positive result: Expand_dlfunc.

    • If you want to perform after-queue integration of Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server with Exim via the SMTP protocol using the rerouting method, enter the number 2.

    The default option is 1 (if the Exim mail server supports dlfunc-based content filtering).

  2. Press ENTER.
  3. If your choice is 2, do the following:
    1. Specify the port number where the smtp_proxy filter will listen for messages from the mail server.

      The default option is 10025.

    2. Press ENTER.
    3. Specify the port number where the message will go after being scanned.

      The default option is 10026.
