Any ideas? You will probably find that you need one license per protected user. I considered changing from a per-desktop scheme to just putting McAfee on an Exchange server, and that was definitely licensed that way. I'm fairly sure the same applies to mail gateways. NAI have a fairly "interesting" licensing scheme. It's very easy to find that you are renting the licenses (this happened to me) and if you choose not to renew you get a threatening letter from their legal department warning you to delete all copies and sign a document stating that you have done so.
