hey ... while we're on this subject, has anyone noticed that the new hbedv engine and virus definition file seems to be catching fewer viruses than the previous version? I don't have hard statistics, but ever since I upgraded it appears not be catching as many as it should.
When I first installed the software, it relieved most of the burden of our exchange server, which went from catching 150-200 infected emails per day, down to about five (most of them being stopped with my hbedv server). But after upgrading, the Exchange server has been gone up to about 20/day, and simultaneoulsy I've "eyeballed" a drop in the number being quarantined through qmail-scanner.
