At TechEd, one of the MS dudes told us that MS doesn't use AV on the mail servers at all. All email is scanned by gateway servers.
Maybe he will like that.

But but but.. pardon me that these point is good for IT Engineer but not to management whereby there will ask Q such as, even though in same box, it will still be able to capture and hold the email if BE is down. They never care about the problem of crashes, upgrade etc. :) so I was thinking any reason that's I never thought of and of cox it should be valid to scare management off so that they agree to have it on dedicated box... Thanks ... -----Original Message----- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2003 8:59 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Scan Gateway Correct. Another nice thing about the gateway on a separate box is that it give you a place to capture and hold email if you need to bring your Exchange boxes down for anything. It sits there nice and pretty and when Exchange comes back up, the mail goes in. -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2003 4:48 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Scan Gateway Simply because its the easiest way to manage it. If it ever crashes or requires maintenance or upgrading, it wont affect other services. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fioon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 10:31 PM Subject: RE: Scan Gateway > > Our Environment only have 275users internally, and another 50users > access from overseas using OWA or POP3.
