Mimesweeper is not a virus scanner, It provides a means to scan all emails..
You have to supply a antivirus engine to the mailsweeper box.

You can use pretty much any scanner you want. F-secure has a special plug-in
that works specifically with Mimesweeper (it is actually provided by
mimesweeper)

Sorry for ignorance, why are you running fsecure on your mailsweeper box? I
suppose it is not used to protect Exchange mailbox but simply a standard
workstation/server antivirus product like VET for example?

PS: I am keen to test MIMESWEEPER too, thanks for your confirmation.

We use mimesweeper here (gateway). We did not want to run anything else on
our exchange servers.
Mimesweeper can scan both inbound and outbound. It will also route for
different domains. The product allows you to block by extension, filetype,
etc.. It is a great product!!!
We are running fsecure as an antivirus on the mailsweeper box.

Mailsweeper for SMTP is the product...

Hello Group,

If you have a choice as an Exchange Administrator, would you prefer to
protect your Exchange environment by installing an e-mail filtering product
(gateway) at the DMZ area instead of installing an anti-virus mail product
on the machine running Exchange Server? I prefer an gateway solution because
I have no confident to complicate my Exchange environment if possible. It
seems to me that sometimes Exchange cannot get along well with these
products.

By doing that, do you think I would be able to filter both incoming and
outgoing mails from virus infection?

According to my last year's investigation, Trendmicro was the highly
recommended one to be running on Exchange server. Is this still the case? I
am reviewing the solution again since the management is ready now. I would
also appreciate your recommendation which e-mail filtering product you like.

Also, if budget is an issue, should I introduce an antivirus product for
Exchange Server or an e-mail filtering gateway product ?

Thank you for your contribution.
