GWAVA is a spam filtering software suite which can employ scanners to detect spam messages and filter them out at various levels of an email system's architecture. This section covers GWAVA's two "versions" (or installation methods), the situations that might determine which version you'll use, and how to install those versions.

[edit] GWAVA Appliance

The GWAVA appliance is an .iso image file meant to install Linux and GWAVA onto a single machine in a single install process. This is most often used when setting up an SMTP scanner.

This is the most common installation of GWAVA.

The appliance can be placed in front of any mail server. With the SMTP scanner, GWAVA acts similar to a mail relay where it accepts mail for the domain(s), processes the mail through its filters and passes along good mails to the mail server. Messages deemed to be spam are stopped before they can ever reach the internal mail server.

The installation instructions for the Appliance can be found here: GWAVA Appliance Install Guide.

[edit] GWAVA Software

The GWAVA software can be installed on either a Linux or Windows platform.

This installation method is most often used when you want to use a GWIA or MTA scanner. Those scanners require GWAVA to be installed on the same system as the GroupWise MTA or GWIA agent for which they are scanning. All of the other scanners types can be used with this version as well.

The installation instructions for both the Linux and Windows versions of the GWAVA software can be found here: Standard GWAVA Install Guide.

Both the appliance and the standard software can be obtained from the Gwava Trial Downloads page.
