I'd definately agree with Mike, if you can afford to, do it.
In my experiance I've found exchange side scanners can be lacking  so
scanning at the gateway is a much better line of defense.

I'd say that if your scarce resources can handle the load, there's no reason
to NOT scan outgoing mails even if they have been scanned by Norton.  Never
hurts to have an extra set of eyes on something.

Hi,

  My MailScanner currently scans incoming mail and it is doing a terrific
job.  I was wondering what were the benefits of scanning outgoing mail.  The
outgoing messages origin from my Exchange server, which has Symantec
Anti-virus for exchange.

  Is it worth using my scarce (at least for now) resources to scan ougoing
mail?
