KB08030602 Installing AVG Anti-virus Installing Anti-Virus
Anti-virus integration is configured from the Console at Options | Anti-Virus Integration Mailtraq supports AVG 8.0 and above, from Mailtraq build 2.15 - read about upgrading your Mailtraq here ... When you install AVG, choose the Custom Install option:
Install AVG but: • do not enable scheduled tests, • the Resident Shield • or the E-mail scanner. Which edition?
Mailtraq itself only requires the Business Edition basic 2-user license (available here... ) - Grisoft also offer larger license sizes for additional computers. You do not want the Mail Server edition and you never use the email scanner component of AVG. Installing AVG
AVG should essentially be dormant except for automatic updates.
AVG may report that the Email Scanner is not fully functional - this is correct: Mailtraq has taken responsibility and does not use the AVG email scanner. After installation, go to the Mailtraq Console, Options | Anti-virus Integration and select and test AVG. IMPORTANT
Do not install the AVG Email Scanner component on the server
If you install the AVG Email Scanner on the same machine as Mailtraq your email
may be delayed or misdirected or you may cause file locking. If you have already done a 'default' installation, it may not be sufficient to just disable
the AVG Email scanner, you will need to uninstall AVG and then reinstall selecting the
Custom Install option. |
