Registering, Activating, and Updating ScanMail
To find out if you have the latest components, view the ScanMail Summary screen
from the product console. It shows your current version and lists the latest version
available for download.
Before you can update ScanMail, you must complete the following tasks:
1. Register your software. See Registering ScanMail on page 3-2.
2. If a proxy server handles Internet traffic on your network, you must set the proxy
server information.
3. Configure your update method and source. Methods include Manual Update

and the Intranet UNC path.

You must install and configure ScanMail separately for each node of a cluster. All
virtual servers on a node share the same components and update source. When a
virtual server from one node has a failover to another node, then ScanMail will
compare the components’ versions and retain the most recent one. For this reason,
when you check the Summary screen for the component version after a failover, it
may show a more recent update then before the failover happened.
Note: On Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 CCR model, ScanMail automatically
updates when the ScanMail resource is online.
