Sophos Endpoint protection on Exchange - questions

I'll be reading the documentation where I may very well find the answers to all or some of the questions below, but some seem important enough to ask here directly.

1. Does Sophos Endpoint Protection, when installed on an Exchange server (2007 SP2 - to be upgraded to SP3), automatically detect certain files that should be excluded from a file-level virus scan, the Exchange .edb database for example?

Other products that I've worked with supposedly did this.

2. When used in conjunction with PureMessage, should Endpoint protection be installed first and then PureMessage second?

I was going to ask a couple questions specifically about PureMessage - but there may be a specific forum for them so I'll look for that first.

Many thanks in advance!

  • Thanks for your response.

    I've installed Pure Message to test this.

    When I look at the list of excluded files, etc., under "Configure" and then "On-demand extensions and exclusions", I see no exclusions listed.

    Note: this is not in the PureMessage interface but rather in the SES+C interface.

    Is that normal?

    Either the establishment of an exclusions list failed, or the default exclusions for Exchange are simply not listed in user interface?
