"Unixfreebsd"? What's that?

I've heard of FreeBSD which is technically a form of UNIX, mind...

That is "ClamAV" and "Spamassassin".

Yes, you can use them, and amavis as well if you wish. All are free

Avira isn't, it's commercial freeware, aimed, I think, more at
workstations than servers. But yes you can use it too if you want.
