Yes, but you can't add antivirus to that anymore. You can't buy new
licenses, just renewals.  Regardless of the platitudes we have seen,
Ipswitch's continued support for Imail as a product is iffy at best. How
long before ICS actually becomes an integrated product and not just a pricey
combination of products? When that happens Ipswitch's Imail will die
completely. Renewal at this point doesn't make sense. We will run Imail in
it's current version and eventually with IMGate or ASSP in front of it to
make the most of it for the longest period possible. We did not and will not
renew a nearly dead product.
