1-If I set netshield to scan \spool, it will not interfere with declude ?
the recieved files/emails are directly created in subdirectories, and
declude will scan and send notification before netshield delete the files?

2- We can set netshield to scan \spool but not its subdirectories ? how ?

3- is it a good idea to do have netshield monitor \spool, do you recommend
it ? (I curently have netshield monitoring the server but exclude \spool)

4- How do I find what version of Fprot dos engine I have ? I already
contacted their support 3 times, but never got an answer, even about the
3.11b problem.
