I believe I have seen some replies to this already, but I though I would put
this out again. I am hosting about 30 domains worth of email and filtering
for an additional 10 domains. My current configuration is all mail is
pre-filtered through a Barracuda 400 box, then forwarded to a
I use Alligate from Solid Oak Software, and I like it a lot.
On my primary gateway, I received just shy of 500,000 connections in the
last 24 hours, and my Declude only had to see 4% of that traffic. Yes,
4%.
I'm spending less time doing clever things in Declude, because Alligate
is
Scott,
Alligate is a good gateway to use when you have something like Declude
behind it.
The only reason that I can think of that your Barracuda box is seeing
that many messages would be because you might not be validating
addresses. Like Andrew said, you can cut your _connection_ traffic
I concur with Andrew, Alligate saved our company a ton of money in upgrades
to our mail server. Our mail server CPU's were peaked 24x7. When I
inserted Alligate into the mix, CPU's peak at about 30-40% now. I highly
recommend it.
