Thanks,
For us ssl/tls is more important than spam protection. All our remote
offices send inter-office emails through ssl/tls. So we come from the
other side; we would like to add spam prevention to our existing ssl/tls.
And yes, there is a lot of spam that comes in through our ssl/tls smtp
connection. Whole-hearted agreement with you!
Thanks,
- Tim
