Exchange 2007 SP3 Support for PureMessage 3.1.0

I am running SBS 2008 with Exchange 2007 SP2 plus update rollup 4 installed. I have been made aware of a security issue (Microsoft Advisory 2401593) that is of particular concern to my business and I want to install SP3 for Exchange 2007 as soon as possible to patch this vulnerability.

Sophos does not list Exchange 2007 SP3 as compatible with PureMessage 3.1.0. As I have no test environment can anyone tell me about their experiences with this configuration?

  • In addition to posting this message I also asked Sophos customer support who have confirmed that Installing Exchange SP3 is not supported for PureMessage 3.1.0 and that they could not specify when a version would be available that would support this. It's highly dissapointing that we are in the situation where either we leave open a security vulnerability or risk breaking anti-spam.

  • Hi Hanny,

    A follow up to your query. Support have decided to clarify the position for both Exchange 2007 SP3 and Exchange 2010 SP1. 

    Sophos will use reasonable endeavours to assist customers running PureMessage for Exchange 3.1.0 on Exchange 2010 SP1 and Exchange 2007 SP3, but advises that issues directly related to these service packs and/or problems requiring code modification may fall outside of the scope of such assistance.

    We still plan to provide official support at a later date for these and a number of other service packs.

    At the time of writing, Sophos Support has not encountered any issues which directly relate to incompatibility of PureMessage 3.1.0 and Exchange 2007 SP3 or Exchange 2010 SP1

    Kind Regards,

    DK
