If the email provider also filters out the emails. Then there is an SEP for SMB. Check out the Symantec site and download some fact sheets.

Hi,

The SEP Small bussiness will suitable for your network invoirement.

Thanks a lot for all these quick responses. I am almost convinced that this will be a good solution. I just wonder about the principles of Enpoint.

Is there any form of client/server communication between the SEP on the desktops/laptops and the SEP on the server? I think I read something about a management server?

We use out laptops 50/50 in our office and by our customers and therefor want a stand alone solution for the laptops.

 Symantec is coming out with a lightweight version of 11 MR4, i.e. SB12.  Both versions will allow you to setup a management server from where you can push out definitions to all clients as well as controls policies such as scan policies, exclusions, network threat protection, firewlal policies etc...

For the laptops enable Liveupdate option for users so that they can connect to the internet and download defs. whilst on the network the managed server will push out the defs to the clients

SEP 11 MR4 MP2 is perfect. It is the best for you
