We run Trend as CVP and it works great! However, in the overall design you do not have security in depth with it only on the gateway. We also run McAffee on our exchange hosts. There is always the possibility of an internal mail users PC getting infrected by another means and it replicating through exchange. It's best to stop it at the gateway and then IF it get's aboard in house, it's nice to have a product there to arrest it. Also, it's nice to have TWO different forms of scanning (reputable, F-Secure, McAffee, Trend, Symantec) that update automatically and reliably so that if one vendor does not have you covered right away, the other will. Merry Christmas to All. :-) Martin Crabtree Firewall Administrator Network Services Blue Cross & Blue Shield of S.C.

I prefer an gateway solution because I have no confident to complicate my Exchange environment if possible. It seems to me that sometimes Exchange cannot get along well with these products. By doing that, do you think I would be able to filter both incoming and outgoing mails from virus infection? According to my last year's investigation, Trendmicro was the highly recommended one to be running on Exchange server. Is this still the case? I am reviewing the solution again since the management is ready now. I would also appreciate your recommendation which e-mail filtering product you like. Also, if budget is an issue, should I introduce an antivirus product for Exchange Server or an e-mail filtering gateway product ? Thank you for your contribution.
