I'm starting to see more and more posts on lists about Antivirus solutions. More and more people are saying they DO NOT run AV packages on the actual Exchange server, just the External Relay Box, since in their mind if it gets past the relay then it will get past the Exchange box with teh same AV definitions.
Our Exchange box uses a lot of CPU running McAffeee Groupshield (constant on-access scans), and I was wondering what are the pros/cons?
All I can think of is that if an INTERNAL employee somehow got a virus and sent it to another internal address, the realy box wouldn't see it. Am I correct in thinking this?
I need more speed, but at the expense of security.
