We use transparent proxy on our edge router to redirect port 25 back onto our Qmail-Scanner servers. The advantage of this is that we can then use the logging to trigger alerts when an *internal* address is responsible for the virus. i.e. we alert on locally-generated viruses, but just ignore (for alerts) Internet-generated viruses. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
