I don't think you'd want Symantec Mail Security anyway. I inherited it, and it's a big source of frustration. The AV works OK: it's caught everything that's been thrown at it, but it uses a lot of CPU. The anti-spam part, however, sucks.

Ok. We currently don't have ANY Antivirus for Exchange. I'm looking at trying to get something, and we currently use Symantec for the network/desktop. Unfortunately, I think Symantec has stopped supporting Exchange 5.5, which is what we currently use. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Erick Thompson Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2005 5:23 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Antivirus for Exchange I've used it, and while the AV is good, the performance is not nearly good enough. The problem is, it runs before Exchange IMF, so it has to scan all the spam, which overloads it fairly quickly. Also, the way it works is to use the command line tool, which needs to reload everything every time, which is slow. It's 90% of the way there...

In general though my standards for what I will use in terms of 3rd party software on a mission critical server are pretty high. I've used AVG on desktop clients on the past with success, but I'm willing to let 10k other people try it on their Exchange servers before I do.

I've got AVG Freeware on my wife's PC and install it on PCs that I work on (for friends, etc.) Just wondering if anyone has tried AVG's Exchange-compatible version. What do y'all on the list like for scanning email?
