Hi List!

Please allow me to start by saying I'm relatively new here, having just 
switched to clam from RAV. I'm very impressed with the responsiveness of 
the Clam team, and with the Clam product. You guys do a great job.

I do have a question on the upgrade(s): Is there typically a period of
time where the old version will work alongside the new version? (I read
the faq and saw the mention of missing viruses if one doesn't upgrade).  
The reason I ask is, in my real job as a network engineer at a major
corporation, we have gotten burned in the past by applying a new service
pack (not talking about Windows...I don't support that pos), or a new
version of a product too soon after its release. As such, I have developed
a policy that if the patch is not security-related, we don't install it
until it has been released for a month or so.

I'd kinda like to apply that same principle to my own business (Loganet)  
with regards to Clam. However, if in so doing I'd be exposing my customers
to viruses that would otherwise be caught using the newer version, I'd
reconsider that policy.

Just wondering...  Keep up the great work, and if I can help you guys with 
anything please ask.

Sam (not a programmer, but willing to help :)
