Email Virus Protection
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.

RE: Email Virus Protection
You can run AV scanning at the gateway; if you are using FW1 then TrendMicro works well with this but there is no real problem running a reputable AV product on the Exchange box either. Most on this list will tell you Trend is good as is Sybari's Antigen, and I have personal experience of F-Prot's Command Suite and CA's Innoculan (now Innoculate-IT). Neither of these have ever let me down but as with anything, you have to stay on top of the updates. In an ideal world, I would use one AV product in conjunction with a content filtering product at the firewall and a different AV product on the Exchange server. When administered properly, Exchange is rock solid and will not be de-stabilised by a reputable AntiVirus product. regards Dom. -Original Message- From: BY [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 December 2001 11:31 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Email Virus Protection 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 use and prefer both. I let the mail hit the gateway for a preliminary scan, then on to the Exch server for a second scan. The gateway also can act as a holding area should the Exch server go down.

However, the users got smart at one point and renamed the extension to *.txt. So, I had to start filtering *.txt files. I'm to the point where I'm about to start filtering everything using a default filter of *.* I probably won't be able to retain this policy for very long so I'm wondering how others have handled this problem?

RE: Disabling access to an Exchange 5.5 server programmatically
A trick we use is to put an MTA limit of a few K below the size of the virus. This doesn't work to well for users on the same store but if you have a large number of servers it limits a fair bit of the damage and leaves the users with some email functionality. This can be scripted with VBscript and doesn't require any service restarts.

The intention is that, if we get a virus outbreak and don't want it spreading, we can run a batch file to disable access to all our Exchange 5.5 servers immediately, leaving us free to deal with the virus. A second batch file would then re-enable user access to Exchange. Any ideas?

RE: Email Virus Protection
We have MIMESweeper between our firewall and our Exchange server. It's great at protecting us from worms e-mailed to the firm. It works with third-party AV software (we use Sophos but if I had to choose today I'd probably go with Trend), plus we've set up rules to quarantine all files with specific extensions (see the Extensions to Block thread from last week). What it can't do is protect us from users with hotmail accounts, etc. Two users last week launched Goner from their hotmail and MSN accounts, thereby infecting the firm. Because of MIMESweeper nobody else was infected, but still. We're considering putting WebSweeper on the same box as MIMESweeper. I expect we'll make a decision within the next two or three weeks. We also use NAV Corporate Edition on the desktop. Fantastic management capabilities but Symantec tends to be late to the party with their definitions.

MS says antivirus not effective on Exchange 5.5: must buy E2000
MS is now saying that even the AVAPI mode of exchange 5.5 can let viruses slip through under load. The only solution is to upgrade to Exchange 2000. From NTBUGTRAQ: === Message from NTBUGTRAQ mailing list shown below: === No real news for some, but the recent waves of mass mailers have once again demonstrated how Exchange Server 5.5 plus an Anti-Virus product may not do an effective job at handling mass mailers. But don't blame your Anti-Virus vendor, the problem comes when the Exchange Server 5.5 is put under load. How much load? Nobody seems to be able to say for sure. However, when under sufficient load Exchange Server 5.5 will simply not notify the AV product there's a message to scan, and instead pass it through to the recipient. Prior to Exchange Server 5.5 SP3, AV Vendors used MAPI-based scanning. However, Microsoft's KB article Q263949 says; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q263949 If you select MAPI-based scanning, be aware that the vendor's software may not scan all attachments because first and exclusive access is not guaranteed. SP3 introduced the Virus Scanning API 1.0, and many vendors provided support for it because it was more reliable. But Microsoft have acknowledged that even VSAPI 1.0 can't always handle the load of an internal infection, and rather than losing messages, sends them through without notifying the AV product.

The number of times customers have actually been bitten by this problem is unknown, suffice it to say it doesn't happen often. Reports I've received indicate that the load required to make Exchange Server 5.5 start missing infected messages (or messages with attachments that have been indicated should be stripped) comes about as a result of one, or more, mass-mailers active in your internal network. For example, someone uses a web-based mail service and opens an email/attachment that invokes a mass-mailer. Once the mass-mailer starts bombing the Exchange Server 5.5, depending on the hardware, it can then get to a point where the load is great enough to cause it to miss inbound messages. Using the Outlook Email Security Update or Outlook 2002, both of which prevent mass-mailers from programmatically accessing the Exchange Addresses, can help to prevent infections that occur outside of the normal AV path. Using client-side AV products can also help. Consider also putting a second network adapter on your Exchange Server(s). If internal clients connect to one adapter, and the infrastructure to the other, you can more easily disconnect your clients from the Exchange Server should you detect its under load. Minimizing what your Exchange Server is doing also helps, size it appropriately and don't use it for anything else. Consider also putting your AV product on its own box.

RE: inactive directory
Thanks, this site was handy. It turns out that the issues was with the initial AD replication from DCPROMO. When The initial replication happened, not all of the required information came through. From any GUI perspective everything was there, but if you dug down into the SPNs, you could see that not all data had been duplicated. Since the bridgehead server had no way of requesting information, it couldn't update the missing information. Manually editing the SPNs on the bridgehead allowed directory replication to occur and everything else to propagate over. Thanks to PSS for their help on this. Apparently this is a known issue, but the cause is unknown so there is no technote about it. /Gordon -Original Message- From: Steven A.

RE: MS says antivirus not effective on Exchange 5.5: must buy E20 00
AFAIK none of the enhancements in AVAPI 2.0 were related to messages being allowed to slip through, but were to expose things such as the sender and recipient of the messages, the lack of inclusion in the 1.0 version being deemed a shortcoming by many customers. Even if the AVAPI in Exchange 5.5 was susceptible to letting messages slip through (an assertion for which I have seen no evidence), Microsoft now has stated publicly that they have no problem with AV vendors who want to engineer an ESE shim scanning method for 5.5 and Sybari's use of just such a technology of the past several years has proved that method to be quite effective. -Original Message- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 10, 2001 10:59 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: MS says antivirus not effective on Exchange 5.5: must buy E20 00 As far as I can tell MS is saying no such thing.

RE: Email Virus Protection
If you have to choose one or the other, choose to load the anti-virus that goes directly on the server( ie. ScanMail) The reason you would want this instead of the gateway type of anti-virus product (ie. InterScan) is because the version that goes directly on the server would be able to clean a message that might have slipped through the gateway before the newest virus defs were available, or what happens when Joe Enduser decides to attach that infected file to a message, your gateway scanner ain't catching it until it passes through on the way out You really need both, but if you have to choose, then choose an anti-virus package that is able to clean/protect mailboxes.

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.

OWA 5.5 - W2K
Hi all I am running an Exchange 5.5 site (sp4) on NT4 (sp6) . My OWA server is a W2K (sp2) with only OWA (sp4) installed. After I first install my OWA server, it runs great! Then something happens (the network goes down, I install a hotfix, or it just breaks ... it has happened 3 times now in 3 different ways) and when anyone tries to log in it gives them 3 logon atttempts (the first two like it doesn't recognize their password) and then a blank screen (like it has logged them in but there is nothing). I have gone through Micrsoft Technet White papers on this specific error (troubleshooting Outlook web Access ) to no avail. After these troubles occcur, I have replaced the Webdata files with original ones that worked and it still doesn't fix the problem ... Anybody else have this? Any solutions .. ???

RE: MS says antivirus not effective on Exchange 5.5: must buy E20 00
I think that some people are jumping to some wrong conclusions here. First off the AVAPI 1.0 article talks about MAPI scanning occasionally missing viruses under load. Then the Exchange 2000 article points out that the VSAPI 2.0 is the next evolutionary that addresses some of the shortcomings of its predecessor. The primary shortcoming that version 2 addressed for most people were the addition of Sender / Recipient information and ability of the API to scan message bodies. I do not think articles imply that AVAPI 1.0 scanning will miss viruses under certain conditions. At McAfee, we are not strongly urging customers to upgrade to Microsoft Exchange 2000. That is a decision for our customers to make based on their own operational needs and requirements.

Exchange and Proxy delay
Hi all, Right first off this is my first posting - so please treat me gently. Exchange 5.5 Proxy 2.0 NT4 SP6a etc etc. Exchange is behind Proxy using the Winsock client - standard config ISP connection is a LAN dial-up ISDN router I have noticed that when an outgoing message is sent from the user and has gone through virus scanning etc - there is about a 30 second delay going via Proxy before the message is sent on to the router. I'm not worried about it (unless it's a problem) more just wondered why - and is it configurable? Is there a way to queue mail and send at specific times rather than have the router make a call for every E-mail?

RE: Filter Sets and Users trying to bypass them.
We use are using a product called Messaging Management System (MMS) from Tumbleweed Communications Corp (http://www.tumbleweed.com). This is a content scanner like Scanmail from Trend Micro. It checks the headers of the files rather than the file names so users can't circumvent the system. It performs many other functions like handling the encryption keys and encryption, content scanning, virus scanning, etc. We place it between Exchange and our firewall. It has a very flexible ruleset and can handle the exceptions you listed. I also run Antigen on the Exchange servers just in case someone brings in a virus on a floppy or from a webmail site.

I am experiencing a high volume of users attempting to bypass my filter set by renaming the extensions. For example, I filter *.exe and about 15 other extensions. However, the users got smart at one point and renamed the extension to *.txt. So, I had to start filtering *.txt files. I'm to the point where I'm about to start filtering everything using a default filter of *.* I probably won't be able to retain this policy for very long so I'm wondering how others have handled this problem? I would like to filter all attachments but be able to designate certain users to be able to send and receive certain files. Most Exchange AV software affects all users. I'm hoping to see something like this in the next build of Antigen (hint, hint). Anyway, have not looked at Exchange 2000 yet so I'm not sure if it addresses this type of issue or not. Any comments?

RE: Email Virus Protection
We use the same scenario as Jon. MAILsweeper for SMTP protected us from all the major outbreaks, thanks to Sophos releasing their anti-virus ide files very quickly. Norton AV on the Desktop catches any virus that may get through. Jon - It is my impression that Websweeper cannot be run on the same box as MAILsweeper, they must remain separate. Mimesweeper does not allow the viruses onto the internal network and we can apply content blocking and file pattern matching etc. -Original Message- From: Jon Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 December 2001 16:02 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Email Virus Protection We have MIMESweeper between our firewall and our Exchange server. It's great at protecting us from worms e-mailed to the firm. It works with third-party AV software (we use Sophos but if I had to choose today I'd probably go with Trend), plus we've set up rules to quarantine all files with specific extensions (see the Extensions to Block thread from last week). What it can't do is protect us from users with hotmail accounts, etc. Two users last week launched Goner from their hotmail and MSN accounts, thereby infecting the firm. Because of MIMESweeper nobody else was infected, but still. We're considering putting WebSweeper on the same box as MIMESweeper. I expect we'll make a decision within the next two or three weeks. We also use NAV Corporate Edition on the desktop. Fantastic management capabilities but Symantec tends to be late to the party with their definitions. They had defs for Goner by noon but didn't tell anyone.

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.

OT: Enhancing voting functionality...
Sorry for the off topic post but I have been asked about this due to the voting functionality in Outlook. I'm running Exchange 2000 and Outlook 2000 and have been asked how we could have advanced voting functionality using Outlook/Exchange. The requirements are listed below. Has anyone ever come across any type of utility that will do this? My comment was build a database application for this but would like input on a third party utility if anyone knows of one. Thanks. Required: * First, vote for 6 and only six candidates out of 150 to 200 candidates. * Some security to assure that e-mail delegates are not voting for the voter. * Ensure that voter does not use 6 votes on one candidate. * Ensure confidentiality that no one know how the voter voted, just that they voted. Administrator intends to follow up with people who haven't voted yet. *Polls to close at a specific time *Wants the results within an hour or so of the polls closing so that the field can be limited to the top 12, and vote again, this time vote for only 1. *Wants to see how many votes each candidate received. Strongly Desired: *Since list of candidate is 150-200 long, give the voters a visually simple way to review their selection before submitting. Desired: *Security ensuring that no one can vote for a voter if the voter leaves their computer on and walks away.
