Virus Scan Order

technically no, but why technically bother with MS at all as it can in
other ways too..

the nice thing about MS is that is acts as a glue and you can alter the
email processing  very easily without having to mess with half a dozen
different programs.

ie administratively its 'easier' to do it in MS (of course
Julian/someone has to fess with the code radically so for them it's not
that much easier ;-)
