The Watchdog can scan the server file system for rootkits, backdoors, exploits, trojan horses and other malicious software on demand or on schedule. It can notify you by e-mail of scanning results and show reports through the control panel. It updates its security knowledge base through the Internet before each scan.

* SMTP Server (QMail)
* IMAP/POP3 Server (Courier-IMAP)
