  • Yup totally just got about 1500 email alerts in less than 40 minutes. 

    I used Sophos Group Policy to disable messaging for the desktop clients. At least this way the end uses will stop panicking.

    As everyone already know but Ill still post it. It is under:

    Sophos Management Console > Policies Section > Anti-virus and HIPS > <Pick your policy> to Edit > Messaging > Desktop Messaging tab > Uncheck "Enable Desktop Messaging"

    At least for our org I have also disabled Email alerts for the time being. Don’’’’t much care to be spammed. 

    Now just waiting for the update.
