That's what he was saying. If you have AV on your Exchange box, which is protecting your e-mail at the server level, then you don't really need to protect it again at the workstation level.

Good catch, thanks and sorry. But I guess I still don't understand Mike's response. What constitutes 'needing one'? Why would the 'need change depending on the av product on the workstation? The workstation AV is not going to protect outlook without a pluggin. (Exchange AV might - but that still doesn't clarify Mike's response for me...)

Mike said they didn't NEED one, not that they didn't have one. Unless that is what you are specifically disputing. We don't use the Outlook plugin here either.

Hmm, interesting - we have Symantec (for the desktop, not Exchange) and (now that I've checked) I have an add-in. -----Original Message----- From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 1:42 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Outlook Anti-Virus Pluggin? I cant remember the last AV client that I used that needed one. Symantec and NOD32 do not.
