McAffee Virusscan 8.0 Enterprise and Outlook Quarantine folders.

[lewis.b.higgins]

Hi
I am running 2003 SBS with a single user login into the domain.
Several computers on the LAN access this account to gain access to a
single catch all email account. (I know that this is just wrong - but
this is how my customer has worked for years). This is working as I
would expect it to. However, When a message is received (not just into
the quarantine folder) McAfee creates a new quarantine folder rather
than recognise that there is already one in the directory listing.

I have altered the settings in VirusScan to point at a renamed
quarantine folder for all clients, yet the new folders are still being
created with the receiving of each mail.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Disable the integration of McAfee with Outlook. It doesn't provide an
additional level of security anyway.

Also note that it is an issue with McAfee not Outlook as McAfee is creating
the folders. Contcact McAfee support instead.
