Installation Information

Pre-requisites

This product requires the Neverfail for Exchange Application Module to be installed and licensed.

This product requires a valid license key obtained from the Neverfail Extranet authorizing the use of this product (ID 1-1023).

This AM(X) is compatible with Neverfail Heartbeat V4.6 onwards. Please note it cannot be used with previous versions of Heartbeat.


Sophos PureMessage for Exchange uses a MSDE / SQL Server database to manage quarantined items. At PureMessage installation time, the Administrator has the option to install a local MSDE database (default) or use an existing SQL Server database. The SQL Server database can be either local or remote.

The Sophos MailMonitor AM(X) does not protect the quarantine database; this protection is provided by the Neverfail for SQL Server AM. The license for Sophos PureMessage AM(X) includes the SQL Server AM license as well.

When installing Sophos PureMessage AM(X)

Do not select the SQL Server AM during install if you have
- A remote SQL Server database.

Do select the SQL Server AM during install if you have
- A local MSDE or SQL Server database.

Please review the following Knowledgebase article: Knowledgebase article #104 - 'Neverfail Heartbeat and Anti-Virus Tools - General Advice regarding inter-operability with Anti-Virus Scanners'.
