RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
I thought trend scamail for exchange can handle is stores. I just installed trend scanmail for exchange 2k and so far I think I'm quite happy with it. We bought the suite so next week will start installing the spam filters. Any tips from the current users of scanmail a newbie should know.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
Yes, Scanmail for Exchange is Trend's product that scans incoming/outgoing e-mail. As far as Spam filters, you just need to be careful of what the actions are. When we used Symantec AV/Filtering on our Exchange server and enabled the filtering, it was quarantining everything. You could either quarantine, or leave it alone. Problem was when it quarantined it, it ripped the message apart, so if we wanted to release a quarantined message, it wasn't in the same format.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
Trend eManager(SPAM software) does not rip apart the messages, simply quarantines them. You simply need to create a new Exchange user folder and quarantine all email to that folder. Then you can review them and forward onto anyone if the quarantine was a false positive. Our works great, especially this latest virus, we put all the subject lines from the virus in the filter and no one received any SPAM from the virus, or an Trend protected us from getting infected from the virus. Great product. ___ Brian -Original Message- From: Ben Winzenz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 12:26 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

Thanks, John. I didn't want to come across as harsh, I just wanted you to provide some reasoning for why you felt that way.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
So you don't think that a particular product can have problems on one system and not another? That's a pretty weak argument. I don't have any problems running it like this, so you shouldn't. Being a Network Administrator, you of all people should know that problems are sometimes hit and miss. How many times have you seen 10 identical desktops and 1 is having problems for no reason whereas the other 9 are fine. Or if you have ever deployed an app via GPO, and 99 out of 100 machines take it, but the other 1 it does not deploy to. There may be a difference in the way I set my server up from yours. My network environment is likely different. I could have chosen different options in the Symantec GUI. Fact is, you don't have a clue how my environment is set up, so put a sock in it unless you have something truly useful to say. And calling me names really hurts my wittle feewings. I think I am going to run to my room and cry for a while.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
What was a reasonable question? I totally missed that. John's original post said he thought I ought to consider running maintenance (usually eseutil or isinteg). No reasoning why. I don't like to run powerful maintenance tools against my server unless I have a good reason why. I asked John to tell me why he thought I should run maintenance and he responded with why he thought there was a possibility that I had a problem with my store. I haven't seen John post anything that says I was too defensive. Quite the contrary. When I responded asking him to state why he thought I had corruption (or possible corruption), he responded with why. For that I responded back and thanked him for his thoughts. Had you posted something useful or well though out, I likely would have responded the same way.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
I don't blindly recommend anything, except maybe my wife's three cheese pasta in a pot. But on the technical side of things, I had a BE installation that would pop up at times and fail a backup telling me the Exchange database was corrupted. Management told me to prove it using something else besides the BE report. There were no Event log indications, user's were able to send and receive mail, but when we attempted to move the mailboxes to a replacement machine in the same site, the wheels fell off, the tranny fell out and the engine just blew a cork.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
Its probably worth noting that installing the same scanner in 3 places is not 3 layers of protection, its the same layer of protection 3 times. Not quite the same thing. If your vendor's scanner engine has a problem picking up a certain type of malware, or their dat files are slow in coming, you haven't done much for yourself by having their product installed in 3 different places. It doesn't matter how many metal detectors I walk through in an airport if the item i'm smuggling onto the plane is non-metallic. And no software is perfect including antivirus software, so *all* scanners, even the ones we all regard as best of breed, will at some time have a problem spotting a new kind of malware stealth method, or the scanner's updates will be a bit slow one arriving one day.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the server a couple of times.

Re: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
When I was a messaging consultant I worked for a very large oil company (well over 100k seats) that had scanning done on the SMTP gateways and on the desktop, but nothing on the Exchange side (something like 120 e2k servers). From what I remember they had not had a email born virus outbreak\infection in years. But the way they got away with this was being very strict on what machines were allowed to plug into their network. Normally I recommend 3 levels, but I have to say this oil company seemed to make 2 levels work (each using a different AV engine).

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
One note related to this. It seems to me that having more than one vendor is as important as having multiple layers. If you have three or four layers of 'insert your AV vendor here' products and they miss the boat on some virus, then all of those layers are irrelevant.

3 layers - We run a Fortinet firewall at the edge which scans SMTP, POP3, IMAP, HTTP and FTP for viruses (at the packet level which is really cool), CA (I know...) on Exchange box and CA on the desktops.
