Hi Guys,
we are using the UTM in the newest version and beside other stuff the MDaemon email server. (Basically a cheap exchange)
It has a built-in antivirus, which is only so-so.
So for now, we are catching the emails from the provide and parse them into the user folders. This is done as a normal "internet-traffic".

While we are about to move the MDaemon to a W2016 server (re-install), we are planning to set our server itself as the MX.
For sure we will use the Sophos UTM as the "man-in-the-middle" via the SMTP proxy. I've seen that it has an built-in AV as well.

While the MDaemon AV is rather stupid, not even able to scan RAR files (which are always quarantined) or lots of other rather common formats, we think about not using it's AV anymore.
In exchange, we would like to rely (not as a sole AV!) for email AV onto the UTM.
So two questions:

So two questions:
1. Which file-formats can be scanned? RAR, TAR, 7Zip and others as well?
2. Is the AV "good" enough to shut down the so-so one from our email server?
(We also use the cloud based endpoint protection from Sophos as an AV for the computers)
