Hello all.
My pc ( celebris gl 5166) run WNT 4.0 sp2, Office97, Microsoft Outlook.
I have installed NTSWEEP Version 2.94 ( not GUI interface ) and
I'm not able to send the result by mail with the option "-MI"
Here is the commands i try :
ntsweep -F -A -P=C:\Ntsweep\result.log [email protected]
and this is icon error:
Microsoft exchange
The profile name is not valid. Enter a valid profile name
OK/CANCEL
clik on the OK another icon ask me CHOOSE PROFILE.
Click on OK because the default profile selected was the same I used
in Exchange... and the mail was not sent.
The error is:
C:\NTSWEEP>ntsweep -F -A -P=C:\Ntsweep\result.log [email protected]

The other command i had used was:

but this start the exchange login that ask me the password,
and after enter the password the follow error popup:

turned off.
This is the syntax from the ntsweep help :

Does anybody run sweep with this option or have some advice ?

Hello Roberto,
The -MI switch is used to interface with Microsoft Mail. I
don't believe it will work with MS Exchange/Outlook. May
I suggest installing the GUI version? It allows the use of
SMTP mail and MS Exchange mail to send virus reports.
Regards,
Arthur
