Subject: Is virus protection on the Exchange server necessary?
Our environment has Trend running on the firewall for anti-virus and content filtering. We have NAV running on the desktops. We are currently evaluating Antigen and SAVF (Symantec) to put on our E2K Exchange servers (including an E2K cluster on a Compaq SAN). However, our Microsoft resident is suggesting to us that AV on the servers themselves is not necessary and will only introduce problems and instability (particularly Symantec's product). He said that when a virus outbreak occurs that actually gets inside, a quick ExMerge on the server is just as effective as pushing out virus defs using the AV product.
With AV software on the firewall and on the desktops, what do people think about not putting AV on the Exchange servers themselves?
