The users have hated me for a while. ...don't ask me about the Dodge Ball incident at the company picnic last year...heh :) Thanks for the input Paul -----Original Message----- From: Soysal, Serdar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 11:00 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Trend Micro ScanMail for Exch 2000 If all you need is a content filtering package, then you may want to review products designed specifically for that purpose instead of purchasing an antivirus package that has a plug-in with limited functionality. However, such products are not cheap either (Tumbleweed's MMS, ContentTechnologies MailSweeper, Preator -I forgot the company-). Keep in mind that content filtering is a losing battle. Eventually all of your users will hate you.

We currently own GroupShield for AV and attachment filtering. My question is: do we need the entire ScanMail package? or just the eManager plug-in? or is there a dependency there? Getting rid of GroupShield is an option, but I don't want to spend the money if I do not have to. >From being on this list for a couple of years I recall that the general consensus is that Trend's products are well received by Exchange admins, however if there are any other viable alternatives, I'd like to hear them too.
