Post subject: command line scanning into PST files
Archived from groups: alt>comp>anti-virus (more info?)

I am a network admin. My users all have their PST files stored on
their X: drive, as X:\mail\outlook.pst

X: is map rooted to \\server\volume\users\%username%

I have Y: mapped to \\server\volume\users

I have a 30 day trial of RAV, from which I can scan y:\users\, and RAV
will look into each of their .PST files and scan for viruses.

RAV was purchased by Microsoft, and then discontinue. RAV is still
downloadable, and updates are released - however you can not purchase
RAV.

Is there another product that will do this for me? I looked at NAV,
Panda, Trend, and CA. None of their antivirus engines could do this.
Some could scan my .PST file via MAPI, but not someone elses.

Any products I overlooked that can scan into .PST files like RAV?

Thanks!

McAfee MAPI interface can scan inside a PST. It can't be done outside Outlook though, you
have to do it within Outlook.
