Mail Security provides version support status information so that you know the support life cycle for the version of Mail Security that you are use. It also keeps you informed when a newer version of the product is available.

The version support status information is updated through LiveUpdate. You obtain updated version support status information automatically when you run a manual or scheduled LiveUpdate on a computer that has the product and the console installed. (You might have to refresh the console to see the updated version support status information after a manual or scheduled LiveUpdate runs.)

You can also manually update the version support information from the Home page. Manually update your version support information from the Home page if you are on a computer that only has the Mail Security console installed or if you update definitions through Symantec Endpoint Protection or Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition.

The version support status information is stored by the console, and the console applies the information to all the servers that are managed by the console. This means that you only need to update the version support status in any view. The version support information is automatically updated for all of the servers that are managed in the server group. The version support information appears on the console for all of the servers in the group, but does not appear on the console for the individual server
