I was wondering if i really need ClamAV and Spamassassin on my server, i use email accounts but i forward everything to gmail.
Do i really need them if i forward everything and don't use roundcube? Do u recommend any other antivirus to protect the server from file uploads on wordpress for example?

Thanks!

You can install and configure maldetect that works together with clamav, in a personalized way to scan your Wordpress in real time. https://hostadvice.com/how-to/how-to-in ... -centos-7/

Same questions. Been using vestacp for years with those add ons. But I have never felt them useful.
I still receive spams and viruses from emails.
