Trend on Linux Rocks! The web interface is very sweet and it actually does what you tell it to do. I tested Emanager very briefly (1 month) with Exchange. I am sure they will allow you to test it out for yourself.

Hello all, We are looking at getting Trend's E-Manager content filter as an add on to our Scanmail a/v product to start screening out spam. If you have or are using E-Manager for Scanmail could you let me know if you would recommend for or against it and if there are any caveats I need to be aware of? I have searched my archives of this list for E-Manager and not found much other than some people who use it and one person who noted an issue but never mentioned what it turned out to be due to. I also searched just on content filtering and spam filtering among others but still didn't see all the info I am after. We are running Exchange 5.5 SP4 and ScanMail 3.5 on WinNT4 in a single domain. Although this quarter I plan to get the domain up to Win2k so if there are issues with Win2k I'd like to know that too. The price for E-Manager is in our range whereas Mailsweeper etc appear not to be and I am very happy with our Scanmail product but want to get a feel for any issues with E-Manager. I also am curious as to the time it takes to baby sit this. If those of you using content scanning software (particularly E-Manager but it's probably similar for all of them) could estimate how much time is required to sort out the non-spam mail that gets caught in the filters and see that it is forwarded on to the user it was intended for that would be a big help. I'm guessing that it takes a bit of tuning of the filters to minimize that but I've no idea if I'm talking about adding a 5 minutes a week task to my job or a 5 hours a week (or more) task. Thanks very much, Ronni ********************************* "The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives." -Albert Einstein --------------------------------- _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
