About McAfee WebShield and SMTP gateway:

Do not use! It is at best unreliable. You can put it on the same server, you
just have to change the port numbers for outbound on the McAfee and Inbound
on the Imail server. If you use it, you cannot use AUTH for SMTP. It has no
way of checking if it is a valid sender through authentication...it just
looks at the from field...great for spammers who can spoof your domain. I
had nothing but problems with it, and then decided to get smart. I use
Declude, which can use the McAfee Command Line Scanner to scan email. I then
let Imail handle the email and McAfee handle the Anti-Virus. It just kills
me to see anti-virus companies getting in to the email and web proxying
business, in which they have no experience in.

I missed this thread as I was on vacation.   MacFee  Enterprise should have 
a Web Shield that is set up to screen all emails. However, I was not able 
to get this work on the new server.   The Net Shield is screening disk 
activities. However, since I have MacFee Running on all desktops and two 
laptops running Nortons. I have virus are still getting through the Net 
Shield.

It is my novice understanding that a separate pc is required to run Web 
Shield feeding  Imail. I am not experienced in setting this up. I would 
quite interested as understanding how this works.

Thanks in advance.
