We also use Barracuda Networks spam firewall for an ISP that outsources mail to us. For the ammount of mail we handle the overhead is too high to use a solution on the mailservers themselves. Although we could have built a freebsd firewall with spamassasin the cost savings was rather insignificant after you factor in the administration and setup time. The updates come on a daily basis and the support is excellent.

Second that, Barracudas are nice. Typically a bit more expensive, but you do get the hardware with it. Perfect to drop in front of your existing mail architecture to offload spam and virus handling, all you need to do is configure the box, add MX records and block outside port 25 on your router. No changes to the existing systems required.
