Hi Andrea,

I started integration of Ikarus with Amavis in 2020 and ikarus.at 
support helped me for integration, I suppose

systemd integration seems works and debian package "ikarus-scanserver" 
is not bad

it block some Trojan, but not may Virus, I have not really stats because 
my Amavis use other scanner (and first positive are enough for Amavis)

performance is not since I switch to "LocalSocket" mode on port 3310

instead of API (very slow)

one of few antivirus that still works on Linux and Amavis on premise and 
not in cloud or as service
