The 3Com Email Firewall provides a built-in virus scanning service.
When enabled, all messages (inbound and outbound) passing through
the 3Com Email Firewall are scanned for viruses.
Viruses can be selectively blocked depending on whether they are found
in inbound or outbound messages. Message attachments are recursively
disassembled to help ensure that viruses cannot be concealed.
When a virus-infected message is received, it can be deleted,
quarantined, or the event can be logged. Quarantined messages may be
viewed, forwarded, downloaded, or deleted. Quarantined messages can
also be automatically deleted based on their age.
