i have concerns about UTM 9 Email Protection. Currently my Exchange Server 2013 Server is using Sophos PureMessage for incoming email spam filter. and i also using the UTM 9 SG125 for my network security. i have one question is: "Do i still have to use my Sophos PureMessage for incoming email spam filter if now i also have UTM email protection.?" thank you in advances.
Hi Faisal,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Sophos PureMessage for Exchange currently has retirement dates announced for it, which means that it won't be receiving any major feature updates in the future.
- PureMessage for Exchange: Retirement
UTM Email Protection will be sufficient to filter the inbound e-mails. If you'd like to test this, I recommend stopping/disabling the PureMessage services from the server where it's installed to see if this impacts the types of e-mails received in your environment.
Once tested, you can choose to decommission the PureMessage Exchange system.
