NAME

       sanitizer - an email virus scanner

SYNOPSIS

       sanitizer [conffile ...] [confoption ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the sanitizer command.  This manual
       page was written for the  Debian  GNU/Linux  distribution  because  the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       The  Anomy  Sanitizer  is  what  most people would call "an email virus
       scanner". That description is not totally accurate, but it  does  cover
       one  of  the more important jobs that the sanitizer can do for you - it
       can scan email attachments for viruses.

       Sanitizer acts as pipe. It expects an email message to scan on standard
       input,  and returns filtered message on standard output. You could give
       a path to configuration file or just set some  configuration  variables
       in command line.
