Why not just setup a relay server with Trend running on it. Four less machines to worry about.

I have been using Trend for years but I am currently with an org that uses
Norton for Exchange and they have been having problems for quite some
time.  There are 5 servers in one site all with SP4 on NT4 SP6.

The question I need answered is does Trend support single instance
scanning of messages destined for multiple recipients, or do they scan the
message multiple times - (a) on the same server, (b) across multiple
servers in the same site.  The example would be if a message were coming
in on a DL for mailboxes on multiple sites.

From Q288848 for Outgoing Mail MS states: After you apply this fix, the
information store releases the attachment and passes it to MTA to deliver
outgoing mail. In some cases, the attachments are not scanned completely
by the virus scan before they are released to the MTA. This may result in
infected attachments being sent through outgoing mail. This is by design.
The Exchange AV API version 1.0 guarantees virus cleanup for incoming mail
but only commercially reasonable efforts for outgoing mail. Customers who
apply this fix should make sure that they have the Antivirus product on
all of the Messaging servers.

While we are still using 5.5 is the reccomended practice to stick with
MAPI mode?

Has the outgoing mail not being scanned been fixed with Exchange 2000?

Regards,

Sean
