Installing Symantec Mail Security for SMTP
Before you install
Preventing conflicts with other software
You must stop any other antivirus software on the server on which Symantec
Mail Security for SMTP will be installed. After installation, reenable the
antivirus protection.
If another file-system antivirus product is installed on the Symantec Mail
Security for SMTP server (for example, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition),
the competing product may try to scan and delete Symantec Mail Security for
SMTP files that are placed in the Queues directory and temporary directory
during its scanning process.
Note:
If you are running a desktop antivirus product on the server on which you
install Symantec Mail Security for SMTP, you must configure the desktop
product not to scan the Queues directory and the temporary directory that is
used by Symantec Mail Security for SMTP. Scanning these directories will cause
significant operational problems with the software.
Preventing conflicts with Symantec Web Security (Solaris only)
If Symantec Web Security and Symantec Mail Security for SMTP are installed on
the same Solaris server, LiveUpdate must be run independently for each product
to avoid a conflict. Run LiveUpdate first for one product, and then for the other
to obtain the latest definitions for both products.
See
“To schedule automatic LiveUpdates”
on page 84.
