Hosting your Web site (web space) E-mail protection
Mail Virus Scanning
Your mail is scanned for viruses at the point of entry into our
hosts network to help prevent virus bearing email can making it
to your inbox. More details (click here)...
Our mail server virus scanning facility helps to protect your mailbox
from unwanted and damaging viruses. Virus scanning is enabled for
all accounts by default. Should a virus be detected in an email
bound for your inbox, the scanning facility will automatically block
the mail and issue a reply to the sender, notifying them of the
detection of a virus.
Definitions are checked for and updated automatically ensuring
that you are protected against emerging threats. The virus scanner
is capable of detecting all known virus types, including polymorphic
or self-encrypting viruses, it is even capable of scanning the contents
of compressed archives such as zip and rar files. In this way, the
system should help to prevent virus bearing email can making it
to your inbox.
Although this system should greatly reduce your burden of viruses,
we would warn you not to rely on us for your virus protection. Viruses
can get through to your system in more than one way.
More likely though is the fact that you may pick up viruses from
other sources such as floppy or CD disks sent through to you from
friends or picked up when you read web mail or exchange files whilst
chatting online on other networks.
