We did this for a while, involuntarily, when we were on 5.5. Norton for Exchange stopped working on the mailbox store for some reason, and Symantec never did come up with a solution.
It worked OK, in the sense that all viruses were detected and dealt with, but it was a little disconcerting for users because they got virus warnings on their desktops when they accessed their mail. We're on E2K now, and the later version of Norton is working fine.
