I run it now. I didn't for 3 years. Things are getting hotter in the virus code department.

I'm wondering whether we should be running our file-level anti-virus software on our Exchange server. We run Antigen for the email AV, and would exclude the Exchange mdbdata & dsadata directories from the file scanning if we did, as I know AV can corrupt the database or directory. The idea is to protect that server from infection channels other than email which Antigen handles. I don't think there's much risk of non-email infection in that server which is dedicated to email, and Antigen only on that server is probably adequate. But I wanted opinions from more experienced Exchange admins. (E55/SP3 on NT4/SP6a) Bob Peitzke Information Systems Manager Sander A.
