You should read some Bellovin. To make a long story short, you can be somehow confident that *you* may manage to deal with malware on a choke point you control. Chances for the network to be "deep protected" under the control of a miriad of end users are nill. So by taking away anti-malware at the smarthost level you are leaving the network "downwaters" at its (worst) fate. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
