Re: [FW-1] Anti-Virus Solution



It routes the packets like a router would, but
it scans the SMTP transactions, the FTP, and the HTTP
for viruses -- if it finds one, it kills the transaction.

It doesn't act as a mail relay in this mode, and it
doesn't require your MX record to be redirected.

It's like having a "SMARTER" router...?

How can esafe do that? A stand alone antivirus means that It must act
as a proxy for http and ftp. For smtp to scan esafe must be your mta
with primary mx.

Esafe as router? Please explain me more if I´m wrong.
