We actually have and use both - only for anti-virus though.

The gateways product handles incoming e-mail just fine.  We use the Exchange server 
(or groupware) version as it can scan the exchange mail store.  

This has saved us quite a few times.  In my environment, I am not allowed to prevent 
users from using their outlook to connect to an outside pop or imap server - while 
their outlook client is setup to access our exchange server.  We've had occurences 
where someone's PC will get infected from an outside pop/imap server.  The groupware 
product prevented that infection from spreading to the rest of my e-mail users.

Subject: Exchange 2000 & Symantec mail antivirus filtering


Does anyone use Symantec's products to do mail filtering for viruses?
�
We have two products here, Symantec Antivirus/Filtering 3.0 for Microsoft Exchange or 
I have Symantec antivirus filtering for SMTP gateways?� I Have installed the SMTP 
gateways solution on our main server which will handle all incoming email, I have set 
it up so that the filter listens on port 25 then relays it to port 26 (which exchange 
is now listening on).
�
�
For speed and efficiency, in experience what would people recommend me to use?
