RE: [IMail Forum] Using McAfee to Scan emails.

[Pau Ruiz Perez]

We've installed Declude & F-prot (you can install McAfee) and the machine works pretty well (9300 viruses since September 13), no much higher CPU usage. (15.000 messages/day)      We had lots of problems installing McAffee SMTP antivirus software and Windows 2K, (worked fine on NT4)      We've got 1U servers, and the cost of installing a new server for mail gateway is UNconsiderable (without the fact you need another license of Microsoft Windows)      I'm working on developing an antivirus for sendmail in Linux, the cost is prettier, but installing is not as good as Declude (Just install & play)      Hope this could help          Pau -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of MarnelleJ Sent: lunes 1 de octubre de 2001 11:19 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Using McAfee to Scan emails. Hello,   you can do this pretty easy, what you will need would be McAfee's WebShield SMTP Gateway software (current version i think is 4.5), then configurign your DNS server to deliver mails to the gateway rather than your Imail Server, then configure the email gateway to forward mails destined to your locally hosted domain to your IMail server, if you have some budget-constraints you can host the antivirus gateway and the Imail server on the same PC, just make sure that your Imail is listening to another port besides 25, then set your WebShield Gateway to port 25 for incoming traffic and IMail set smtp port for outgoing.   We've done this configuration but on a next level basis, we built webshield server farms on which mail traffice will failover once a webshield server goes down. If you have any more queries, please don't hesitate to contact me.   Cheers ----- Original Message ----- From: rajendraprasad_bh To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 01, 2001 4:07 PM Subject: [IMail Forum] Using McAfee to Scan emails.   Hi,   I am using Imail 5.0. 1.
