We are a small service provider with approx 500 domains. We average 400,000 inbound emails per 24 hour cycle weekdays with about 10-12% of that ham. One domain accounts for 80-85% of that volume.
Imail w/Declude on a beefy multi-processor server is no longer keeping up as well as we'd like it to. Without our IMGates, we would be dead in the water. So it's time to start migration plans. Cmd line is no problem. We are a FreeBSD house. Linux is okay, but prefer FBSD for servers. A front end GUI would be nice for the staff whose comfort level w/cmd line is low although it's not a must. One item we have been considering is a solution that allows customers to manage or at least have more control over their own spam filters. IMGate type of filtering is great for probably 90% of our customers but we've found doesn't met all customers needs. This has led us to extend/develop additional capabilities for our IMGates. It would be nice to offload some of that management onto the customer. Currently, reporting is a thin area for us. The new system should have good management and reporting capabilities. -NB
