RE: Antigen vs. Nortons
I've dealt with MAPI and AVAPI - but what is the SE API? Is this something that only NAV uses? randy -Original Message- From: Ropiak Steve - NAO Florence Office Exchange and Bar Code Admn.

RE: Antigen vs. Nortons
NAV MSE does attachment filtering just fine. And some other folks indicated that they would never use a file scanner on the Exchange, which I would agree with, however NAV MSE is MAPI/VAPI and works well with 5.5 and 2k. Sure wish I could force a conversion to Trend though...I think that it is easier to manage. John -Original Message-From: Ropiak Steve - NAO Florence Office Exchange and Bar Code Admn.
