Installation instructions

48  Configuring virus checking GFI MailSecurity for Exchange/SMTP
The Virus Scanning Engines are listed in the same order of priority
used by GFI MailSecurity to scan emails for viruses (Priority 0 being
the highest or top priority).
Each Virus Scanning Engine must be configured separately. To
configure virus checking, click the required Virus Scanning Engine
from the Status page on display in the right window. Alternatively, you
can expand the Virus Scanning Engines node and click the required
Virus Scanning Engine node (for example, Kaspersky).
NOTE: If you are running GFI MailSecurity on a Microsoft Exchange
machine and the Information Store Scanning status is set to
Disabled for all Virus Scanning Engines, the Information Store
Scanning feature is disabled. The GFI MailSecurity configuration will
inform you with a dialog that the Information Store Scanning feature is
going to be disabled since you are trying to disable the only Virus
Scanning Engine left which is set to scan the Information Store. If you
click OK, the particular virus-scanning engine will have the Information
Store Scanning feature disabled and so will the overall Information
Store Scanning feature. If you click Cancel, the virus-scanning engine
will not have the Information Store Scanning feature disabled and the
overall Information Store Scanning feature will remain active since
there is at least one virus-scanning engine that is still configured to
scan the Information Store.
Screenshot 40 – Information Store Scanning will be disabled.
If the overall Information Store Scanning feature is disabled, you need
to enable it from the Information Store Protection node before you
can configure any Virus Scanning Engine to scan the Information
Store. If you try to configure a Virus Scanning Engine to scan the
Information Store and the feature is disabled from the Information
Store Protection node, the GFI MailSecurity configuration will inform
you about this with a dialog as shown in the screenshot below.

AVG configuration
NOTE: The AVG virus engine must be purchased separately: This
engine is not included in the base product. As standard, GFI
MailSecurity includes both the Norman and the BitDefender anti-virus
engines. For pricing information on adding the AVG anti-virus engine,
please visit the GFI website (www.gfi.com).
