IT consultant here. I know this is a political board for getting angry and whatnot but I rarely encounter anyone using antivirus on their Microsoft Exchange servers. If they do, Microsoft makes them exempt a lot of directories. Sounds bad to a low level IT professional but it really is common in the industry. The thing is that you wouldnt want your exchange server to be exposed to the DMZ or "normal" parts of our network directly. you proxy al that traffic in through a firewall and use load balancers or NAT. I suspect this is where they fricked up. It's not a computer you use to browse the internet and install random shite on.

Most of my clients have virus scans on incoming and outgoing email. In some cases, they are required to.
Edited to say most, not all. We don't test it for all of them.

That's a poor business practice. Where I work, we use both the Titus tool and have the Exchange Server heavily protected. Any attachment not labeled properly or with a questionable source is immediately zapped by the HIPS.

Exchange should have One of the integrated products like McAfee Security for Email Servers or Symantec mail security for exchange.
The server itself should still have virus scan and yes you would have to exclude the database files.
