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. ----- Original Message ----- From: "R.
