Do BOTH! The virus scan on the mail server is one line of defense and
protects against 80-90% of the virusses today. However it is not the only
vector for virusses.

Yup. I was verry fortunate to have declude and sophos set up a few days
before nimda broke out. :-)))))))))))

Remember, declude is not the scanner itself, it's the interface between a
simple file virus scanner and a popular Mail server. If at all possible use
one virusscanner for the mailserver and an other for the workstations. The
way I have it overhere is a bit different. I have sophos on the mailserver
and the workstations and Symantec is scanning the files on the servers.
