The company doesn't care if I ask a questions. Getting feedback from others doing the same thing or having the same issues is what these lists are all about. I am looking for feedback relating to setting up a policy of notify or not to notify. I want to hear what others are doing before I set up a policy going forward. I have been sending notifications but I want to review the practice to see if it has any real value. That is why I asked the question here. If others of you find no value or if everyone has the same idea to notify then I would like to weigh that factor in my decision.
On another note. I like the Declude spam filter. It has cut down the amount of spam by about 60-70% It takes a bit to work out the level of protection you want, it also takes time to white list those who do not have their servers set up properly, but I think it is good product.

We use Declude AV which sends automated notifications to sender (or optionally recipients too) warning them about infected e-mails. Our customers love it and are most appreciative of the notifications. Almost too funny you are an IP Switch employee. I am sure the IMail AV department over there is going to love your post/inquiry! I always wondered why IPSwitch did not work a deal with Declude? It's a fantastic and more affordably priced product for most on this list. At the same time IMail server is great too! Well... 6.06 is anyway, as I waiting for version 7.** stabilization. Give Declude AV a whirl and I am sure you will agree. Also, what a great testimony to Declude Junk Mail if IPSwitch is using! -Don S. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:IMail_Forum- > [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Steven Driscoll > Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 6:52 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [IMail Forum] Virus Stuff! > > Good Morning all.... > > First off...I'm new to the list.
