SMG licensing - how does it work?

  • 1.  SMG licensing - how does it work?

    Posted Mar 13, 2013 04:49 AM

    Hello,

    For quite a while our company is using SMG in-front of exchange. Though the company has shrinked by alot, and its renewal period for the SMG license.

    SMG licensing works per user. That much I know.

    Though I do not have any users added in SMG, I only have the default rule in policy groups under Users.

    How exactly does SMG count the users? Since users are not added.

    If I use the "find users" under Users tab in the admin web console I get this reply "This email address is configured as a valid user address"

    for any email address in or outside the organization. In fact you can make up an email address such as ena@paistinpotamia.com (which does not exist) and you still get the reply "This email address is configured as a valid user address".

    So any suggestions on how exactly the licensing works?

    Thanks

    SMG does not count or track users.
