Running Trends ScanMail, so we don't have an option to send notifications based on virus type. Good idea though!

Actually, a reasonable compromise for Antigen users is to disable notifications for worm senders, which includes all the sender spoofing mass mailers, but enable notifications for virus senders, which covers the macro viruses that still turn up sporadically. -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Pfefferkorn, Pete (pfeffepe) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 10:06 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Virus Notifications to Sender? I appreciate all the feedback. After reviewing the posts, I guess we will have to re-evaluate the sender notification messages. I'm starting to lean toward turning the notification off. Or possibly a combination of both? Turning off when we have an outbreak of a new virus that spoofs like KLEZ and then turn the notification back on when it subsides. As I re-read this, that doesn't sound good either. Time to make a decision and stick with it I guess. -----Original Message----- From: Pfefferkorn, Pete (pfeffepe) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 7:53 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Virus Notifications to Sender? Off topic. With the advent of Klez and various other viruses who spoof the sender we are starting to get complaints from users who are receiving the sender notifications messages from our ScanMail virus scanner who did not actually send any virus. I know we can turn off the notification, but then users who are sending viruses will not get notified that they are infected. Kind of a catch 22. I'm curious what other administrators policies are regarding notification messages to the sender. Have you disabled sender notifications or are you just living with it?
