I get mixed signals from Symantec on this.
Some time back I tried a Brightmail install on EL4 and when it bombed
Symantec told me EL4 was not supported. Recently though I called for
support and the tech asked me if it was on EL3 or EL4. I asked about
support for EL4 and was given a vague answer about some customers using
EL4.
I had bigger fish to fry at the time (as in the real reason for the tech
call) and didn't pursue the issue.
