The whole point of moving to a non-Microsoft solution is that it makes virii(sp?) a non-issue. Further, I've never been in a *nix network that didn't keep all the email on the server, route all smtp traffic correctly, and firewall any attemps to break the system. These aren't issues in non-MS land because things *work*. These aren't new problems - their solutions were worked out a long time ago. James Rich james@eaerich.com
