The key words are "for viruses". Antigen is the best solution in my humble opinion for virus scanning.
But they are only now getting into content scanning. And the Help file in Antigen 6.5 and 7.0 indicates that the content scanning is only done on subject lines. Actually when you go to the Antigen admin and click on Content Filtering, two choices are displayed: "Sender/Domain" and "Subject line" -----Original Message----- From: Dale Geoffrey Edwards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 2:29 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Content Filtering Antigen has scanned the message body since the previous v6.5. Here is a direct quote from Sybari: "Both Antigen 6.5 and 7.0 both provide the ability to scan the message body for viruses at both the SMTP/IMC and the Exchange Store. We have provided this as an option to enable/disable at the store for both realtime scanning and manual scanning for performance reasons."

I think we may roll our own SMTP content filter for the W2K SMTP Service that is modeled much like SPAM Assassin. Or I would like to get my hands on that RBL blocking script that Siegfried has been working on. -----Original Message----- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 11:09 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Content Filtering OK. I just installed it and took a look. Content filtering seems to be the same as in version 6.5 First of all it only scans message subject lines. You give it a word to look for and it scans. If it finds a message with that word in the subject it can purge that message or quarantine it. Some of the leading content scanners like MimeSweeper scan the entire message, not just the subject. Also they use weighting. One can assign different weights to different words or expressions. Then if a message has enough of these words and/or expressions that the total weight is above the predefined threshold, an action could be taken against that message. And usually there is a bigger variety of actions (purge, quarantine, archive, forward, auto-reply, run custom script or executable, etc.) -----Original Message----- From: Baker, Jennifer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 1:36 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Content Filtering Yes you do.

And their content scanning is very basic so far. -----Original Message----- From: Dale Geoffrey Edwards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 12:54 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Content Filtering Sybari Antigen for Exchange is an excellent package. We use it and are very happy with the automatic updates and the content filtering. Also you can create templates to distribute new changes (upgrades are free for the life of your contract). They are releasing their "Gold Package " at MEC, and were voted "Best of Show for their Gold Package -- Antigen 7.0."

I am the most reliable content filter for Exchange. For only $375k (plus 125k annual maint) I'll come filter your mail. -----Original Message----- From: Cooke, Brian To: Exchange Discussions Sent: 10/1/2002 8:52 AM Subject: Content Filtering Hi all, I just had a quick question in regards to a content filter add on and which would be the best to use for Exchange 5.5. Currently we are using NEMX but I would like to explore other options. What do you all feel is the most reliable content filter?
