Hi,

what program do you use for managing your e-mail?

Norton has a built in e-mail scanner what runs automatically, and checks your mails if your mail servers works on the standard in- and outcoming ports. Plus there's an integrated toolbar for MS Office Outlook (2002-2007), for Outlook Express 6, and for Vista's Windows Mail.

Re: integrate nis with hmailserver

On our network, i'm using hmailserver as our mailserver and then each machine has thunderbird or outlookexpress. Each has it's own antivirus but hmailserver allows to pass incoming emails to an external scanner (i'm using kaspersky at present) before it distributes them so viruses get caught before getting to local machines. but kaspersky impacts heavily on performance which is why i'd like to move to norton (very big improvement on the machine on which i tested it!). I wanted to see if I could use norton as the incoming scanner in place of kaspersky.

many thanks, Bill

Re: integrate nis with hmailserver

I know it is possible to run the scan service (navw32.exe) with parameters, but I never tried to run it to check only incoming mails. I notified now the Symantec stuff here to contact the NIS team or the preson who knows how to use navw32.exe with parameters.

Please wait a bit, I'm sure they will help you how to do this.

Re: integrate nis with hmailserver

hiya,

do you think i might get an answer from some symantec person or is my query a dead duck? all i wanted to find out is what return values to expect from navw32 when it finds a virus or something not nice. i would really appreciate an anwser very much indeed.

thanks in advance, Bill
