[AMaViS-user] configure and installation of amavisd new

I've been working on a configure/makefile for amavisd-new that I've
had great success with thus far.

I've been asked if I can have it generate some default values based
on the target OS so I thought I'd ask if this is something that may
interest people.

As well, I've created a basic man page for amavisd new (man amavisd)
that covers the basics of flags and options to run amavisd

I've set up a case based on various target OS types for the following
settings

log file (default OS location)
amavis home (default OS location)
amavisd user (grep the system for 'clamav vscan amavis' if no OS
default is defined)
amavisd group (grep the system for 'clamav vscan amavis' if no OS
default is defined)
virusadmin e-mail (default to virusalert\@`hostname`) (cli definable)
quarantine home (default to var/virusmails) (cli definable)
location of clamd socket (default OS defined)

hostane (default from `hostname`) ( definable)
domain (default from `uname -n`) (cli definable)
socket port (default 10024) ( single/multi port cli definable )

It includes features to enable an advanced headers patch during the
build and I can easily update it to include any other or OS specific
patches that may be required.

Also, adding patches for configuring for mysql and ldap can be
configured making the installation that much less painless.

Is this something of interest in the amavisd-new project development????
