Actually Luke, I don't know if you have investigated this, but you are
incorrect when you say all it takes is a 1 user license.

We have investigated most of the big scanners that have Linux versions and
they all require licensing per user protected.
Which means that any user that has a mailbox you have to buy a license for.
However, we are using NOD32 which doesn't have what I think is a silly rule.

But I know that Mcafee and Sophos have this rule
