Also, keep in mind local security policies in Windows 2000 allow for IPSEC traffic. If they other end points are linux boxes you can implement IPSEC box to box traffic as well. It is my opinion though that this put's a lot of load on systems that already can get overloaded quickly. I typically implement a VPN to accomplish this type of security.

We use MailMarshal from Marshal Software (recently acquired by NetIQ), which is a great product, supporting mail filtering as well as gateway to gateway encryption, plus a host of other features. It can either be integrated with Exchange2000, or act as a relay between the Internet and Exchange (5.x or 2000). http://www.marshalsoftware.co.nz/ Just my 2c > -----Original Message----- > From: Al Cooper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, 1 April 2003 5:44 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Email Encryption Between Servers > > > We are attempting to set up secure e-mail with our partner > companies to > comply with the upcoming HIPAA requirements.
