Object:

	Clement is a small application which only purpose is to
	trap most of the unwanted mail (SPAM) at the earliest
	possible stage.

	Clement can work standalone, using 'clamav' to detect 
	Viruses and 'spamassassin' to check about SPAM contents.

	Viruses are rejected first hand (returning the virus name
	to the real SMTP originator), detected spam are stored
	within quarantine if detected spam level is above a
	accepted level.

	Clement can also be connected to a remote 'Mentor', which
	is able to analyze received E-mail context and give an
	advice according E-mail origin and E-mail recipient past 
	communication pattern.


Configuration:

	All configuration are in the conf directory, within
	the file './conf/clement.conf'.
	Variables name and purpose are described in the file 
	itself.


Logs:
	All logs are stored within './logs' directory, 
	logs report all transaction on a real time
	daily bases.
	A cron shell is set such only the last 10 days logs
	are keep in log, older logs can be found within
	'./logs/.Old' directory.

Debug:
	Starting 'clement -h' allow you to know about the
	available option, option '-d #' allow to start
	the application in debug mode, unless you set the
	'-f' (foreground) and '-v' verbose mode, debug
	information are transmitted to syslogd under LOG_DEBUG
	channel, make sure you have updated '/etc/syslog.conf'
	to get a trace of those traces.


Sources:
	Clement is available in source RPM format beside the
	binary RPM.


Bugs & improvements:
	Sure enough Clement can be improved and bugs 
	could be still running around.
	Please do not hesitate to send me E-mail 
	to <jmp@safe.ca> if you have patch to 
	submit or suggestions to share.
