Unfortunately this option is only available in MS Exchange Server 2003, where Microsoft Virus API 2.5 support has been implemented. The setting is available in the Microsoft Exchange System Manager.

 

The scanning of e-mails in MS Exchange 2000 using AVG for Exchange is done by the Virus Scanning API 2.0, which is used for e-mail scanning by many anti-virus systems. In the case of VSAPI2.0 is the email scanned part by part (there isn’t another solution in MS Exchange – to be exact the API doesn’t support that). This is the reason why the whole message can’t be deleted or moved.

 

More information about VSAPI 2.0 is available here:
