Yes I read that one. Notice where it says: "All attachments are rescanned after virus signatures are updated. Before an operation can gain access to these attachments, it is important that you plan a signature update to occur during off-peak hours. This allows time for the attachments to be scanned and made available to MAPI operations. Due to the way that some anti-virus vendors update their product, stop and restart the information store after a virus signature upgrade to re-initiate the background scanning task."
"After you enable the BackgroundScanning value, Microsoft recommends that you allow approximately one hour to pass for each gigabyte (GB) of attachments that is stored in your private information store before you perform a MAPI operation, to ensure that all attachments have been scanned. After that amount of time, MAPI error messages are greatly reduced or may be eliminated. " So every time there is a definition update, I *may* have to stop and restart NAV and my server will be really slow for 24 hours (24GIG store). Norton will be doing daily def updates before long so that means the server will spend 100% of its time scanning. Hmmm.... Maybe I need a dual P4-2000 server just to support antivirus?
