ABOUT THIS RELEASE

PURPOSE

This HotFix includes an updated archive file for
use with McAfee WebShield SMTP MR1a and Patch WSP0803 software
with Alert Manager 4.7. This new file resolves the issues 
described in the section "RESOLVED ISSUES".


RESOLVED ISSUES

In addition to the resolved issues listed in the
Readme of Patch WSP0803 the following issues have
also been resolved.

1) The Mailscan process detects e-mail messages with
disclaimer text as corrupt.

2) Resolves an issue on update failure where
FRONTEND.EXE hangs and all further updates fail
unless the services are restarted.

3) Resolves an issue where WebShield SMTP was not
detecting a virus which had multi-part alternative
MIME ("W32/MyWife.a@MM" virus).

4) Resolves an issue with detecting "JS/Zerolin" virus.

5) Resolves the issue that messages infected with "bagle"
virus get stuck in the "In folder" of WebShield SMTP 4.5
patch 8, and it causes the software to hang with the alert
manager service at 100% cpu utilization and the Mailscan 
process becomes unresponsive.

6) Resolves the issue that e-mail messages detected with the
"W32/Bagle" virus and its variants are sent as blank e-mails.
Webshield SMTP did not replace the attachment with a warning.txt
as usual. In addition, the entire header (except the 
sender information) is removed from the e-mail.

7) Resolves the issue that a certain message sample causes the
Mailscan process to continuously hang and eventually crash the 
Mailscan process.


KNOWN ISSUES

Installing this HotFix has the following impact on
the other components:

1.  This HotFix will support and interact with the
    new Alert Manager (AM) 4.7 service. Therefore it
    is mandatory that AM 4.7 be installed before
    applying this HotFix.

2.  While upgrading to AM 4.7 from AM 4.5 do not
    stop the Outbreak Manager Services. Simply
    double-click the AM 4.7 setup.exe and it should
    take care of the AM 4.7 installation / upgrade.

3.  Do not manually remove the McPal Folder located
    at:

    C:\ProgramFile\CommonFiles\NetworkAssociates\McPal

    This folder has some files that are necessary
    for Outbreak Manager to work with AM 4.7.

4.  Users may not get alerts for certain types of
    events. If this happens, you may need to change
    either the priority levels for those messages or
    change the AM configurations for generating
    those messages (including those for
    informational messages). This can be done
    through the AM Program Menu options. The AM
    priority settings are not mandatory because
    different users like to be alerted differently
    based on priority levels.

5.  Base64 Encoded E-Mails with disclaimer text are
    delivered to the recipient without being flagged as
    corrupt. However the disclaimer text is sent as
    it is without any decoding/encoding. This is as
    designed and is the standard behavior of mail clients
    and other Mail Transfer Agents.

INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

The McAfee WebShield SMTP 4.5 MR1a Software with
Patch WSP0803 and Alert Manager 4.7 must be applied
on your system before installing this HotFix.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

-   This HotFix does not work with earlier versions
    of McAfee WebShield SMTP software and Alert
    Manager 4.5.

-   Once Alert Manager 4.7 is installed it cannot be
    rolled back to Alert Manager 4.5. So if this
    HotFix is installed, it cannot be rolled back.

-   The account used to install the HotFix must have
    the change rights to the temporary location used
    for expanding the HF218014.ZIP file.

INSTALLATION STEPS

1.  If you still have Alert Manager(AM) 4.5,upgrade
to AM 4.7, then continue to install this HotFix.Please 
see the KNOWN ISSUES section of this document for tips 
on how to upgrade to AM 4.7.

2.  Unzip the file HF218014.ZIP to a temporary location 
on your system.

3.  Ensure that the WebShield MR1a Configuration Console
and the WebShield MR1a Status Monitor are both closed.

4.  Open the Windows Services control panel and stop
these services:

"Network Associates WebShield SMTP MailCfg"
"Network Associates WebShield SMTP MailScan"
"Network Associates Outbreak Manager"

5.  Make a copy of all the original .dll and
.exe files listed in the FILES INCLUDED WITH THIS
RELEASE section. If you have installed WebShield SMTP MR1a 
in its default location, you will find these files at:

C:\Program Files\Network Associates\TVD\WebShield
SMTP

You can either rename the existing files with the
.BAK extension, or move the files to a different
location on your hard drive. Copy the new files
from the temporary folder you created in Step 2
to:

C:\Program Files\Network Associates\TVD\WebShield
SMTP

6.  Return to the Services control panel and start
these services:

"Network Associates WebShield SMTP MailCfg"
"Network Associates WebShield SMTP MailScan"
"Network Associates Outbreak Manager"

7.  Double-click on AMCorrupt.Reg and check that
the file registers successfully.

8.  Restart the "McAfee Alert Manager Services".


TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION

You can test the operation of the software by
scanning for genuine messages that have disclaimer
text and check that these mails are not being
reported as corrupt.


REMOVING THIS RELEASE

If this HotFix has been installed after Build
Version Number 393 and above, then this HotFix can
be rolled back by overwriting the existing files
with the backed up copy of the corresponding files
as was done from step 4 onwards.

If you have upgraded to AM 4.7 and applied this HotFix,
then the HotFix / AM 4.7 cannot be rolled back.If you 
need to go back to the older version of WebShield SMTP,
the product has to be reinstalled again.

Note:

   1. To check for the Build Version Number open the
      WebShield SMTP Console. In the Information Tab
      read the value against the Version Number 4.5
      MR1aP0803.XXX – This XXX tells you the Build
      Version Number.
   2. We recommend that you do NOT remove the HotFix files
      from your WebShield installation once you install them.
      If you reinstall your WebShield SMTP software, we 
      recommend that you also reinstall the HotFix.
