Servers normally don't get infected, only messages that the server holds. It's the clients that do the infecting. This means that your first line of defense is to make sure that the clients are well protected.
There are many mailflows within Exchange 5.5 that are, well, just not scanned. You have to live with it. Make sure that your perimeter is well protected, make sure your workstations are protected. Then you might have to do periodic database scans to pull everything else out. -----Original Message----- From: James Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Friday, March 08, 2002 6:18 AM Posted To: Microsoft Exchange Conversation: Urgent help to virus scan email internally. Subject: Urgent help to virus scan email internally. Anybody have any ideas on how to implement a virus scanning avi within exchange 5.5 between two exchange servers within domain. Have been researching without much luck. Previously one exchange server got infected and spread the virus to all other exchange servers. I need a solution that can filter off x.400 and also enable directory synching to take place. Another Idea was to add a second exchange server in front of the real exchange server and set a virus scanner on this one. Is there a way of stoping the messages via MTA at one exchange server and then passing it on to the main server. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ 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]
