We use Mail Essentail for Exchange 5.5. I haven't had any problems with it, the a/v goes out and ftp's the latest viurs definitions at some off hour and sends me the notice. It can block atachments and will also scan attachments for macros and clean/quarantine them. You can also set it up for anti-spam.
