Hummm... ok, i'm not an expert postfix user, but i just tried with the 
direction given, first, by the f-prot itself with scan-mail, and then 
with amavisd-new. So, any of this method requires two instances of  
posftifx?. That was no clear for me.
I followed the directions, and it opens a port 10025 where it filters 
any virus a email can have, but only, if the gateway is the final 
destination. As soon as i configure the internal machine in the 
transport file, no virus is removed. By afternoon i'll be again at the 
server, and will post postconf -n as suggested before.
