Re: How does Symantec Multi-Tier v10.0 stack up?

I have just spoken to a reseller and it appears that the Multi-Tier does
exactly what you have with the Mail Security program (prevent virus and spam
at the server level). This should mean that we have less of an issue on
mobile clients with Spam/virus and we only have one license to buy for the
whole infrastructure.

I'll let you know how it goes as I'm going to buy it today. (Hopefully it
won't kill the server like some Symantec AV stuff does).

Thanks for your words of wisdom. M
