Yep, then you have to run the database utilities to fix the broken links and database pages. Besides, a message with a worm usually is a throw away anyway.

Meanwhile exmerge will kill the message and attachment together (not just the attachment). But I have only read some of the Q's from technet and have no real experience with the tools -- so I'm not sure -- which utility is more appropriate? > -----Original Message----- > From: Ray Zorz [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: December 4, 2001 8:40 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm > > ISSCAN > -----Original Message----- > From: Ellery July [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 4:46 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm > > > exmerge > -----Original Message----- > From: Mal Sasalu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 3:43 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm > > > Hi there, > > Is there any tool with which I can clean all the mailboxes > on my exchange from this dirty "Hi" message? > > Thanks > mal > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bob Fronk (BTR Technologies, Inc) > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 2:13 PM > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: RE: *** Warning *** New Virus - W32.goner.a@mm > > Configure NAV for Exchange to block attachments.
