>>How this could be done? We're using GroupWise at work. In few months before I received ha-ha-ha virus. I reported this to our Network Administrator. Then I received it few times again.

>GWIA offers the option to have a third-party application scan Internet messages.
>
>1. From NWADMIN's GroupWise Gateway/Internet Agent information screen, select the Advanced Settings tab.
>
>2. Select "SMTP services directory (for third party use)."
>
>3. Enter a valid path such as \\server\volume\GW5\DOMAIN\WPGATE\GWIA\THIRD.
>
>4. Select OK.
>
>5. Create this directory (THIRD) manually.
>
>6. Exit and then restart GWIA. The restart message sent to GWIA from NWADMIN will not cause it to read the GWIA.CFG file
>
>with the newly added /SMTPHOME switch.
>
>7. Confirm that GWIA created the SEND, RECEIVE, and RESULT directories under the GWIA\THIRD directory.
>NOTE: The /smtphome allows a process to work between the gateway process and the daemon process. Use of this option requires that the third party product can be configured to look in specific directories and move files to other specified directories. Some virus scanning products are actual smtp
>
>services. In this case the virus scanner will run on its own server and receive the file, scan it and then hand it over to the GWIA server. For outbound the GWIA can hand the file over to the virus scanner with the /mh- switch.
>Also, note that with the use of the /SMTPHOME switch the files in the RESULT directory under the GWIA\THIRD directory need to me moved to the RESULT directory under the location pointed to with the /DHOME switch.
>Several third-party Internet e-mail antivirus gateways include:
