WorkgroupMail Home Edition provides a reliable but cost effective mail server for up to 5 members of a family, facilitating the download and distribution of mail messages from an ISP to the appropriate family member. It comes with a cut-down antivirus plug-in which can use popular antivirus software, such as Norton Antivirus or McAfee VirusScan, to check each message for virus infection.

Please note that it is not possible to purchase additional users or plug-ins for the Home edition. If you think you will need more than 5 users or you will want the features in the available plug-ins, then you should consider the Professional Edition.
