I am on this list because I run IMail on my own system, it does the best job
for what I want. However, in my spare time I am a full time e-mail
administrator at a major University running Exchange. Anti-Virus has been a
major challenge. However, I ran across a company that had an excellent
idea.
There seems to be some great AV engines already designed, what they did is
license these engines and write the interface to Exchange. The company is
Sybari and it won't work on IMail, but I thought perhaps someone on this
list could figure how to make, Sophos, Norman, Norton, or NAI hook into
IMail.
Antigen by Sybari does automatic updates of pattern files on a schedule you
define. It will also allow filtering to quickly block viruses by attachment
filename before pattern files are released.
Of course it also does a full database (message store) scan which would not
apply to IMail.
Just a thought...
