We use a Linux/Exim server as an SMTP gateway, running SpamAssassin and ClamAV through Exiscan-ACL. Will SMTP time reject any identified spam over a certain score and any virus laden messages, and anything left will be forwarded on to our Exchange server.
With Exchange 2003 you can use the recently released IMF for free. Alternatively, Barracuda Networks produces a spam firewall, which is essentially a custom 1U server running SpamAssassin. The benefit is that it's very affordable (around $1200 for the basic version).

What SPAM solutions have people here on this list used or are currently using? We are still running Exchange 5.5 and we are looking for a good solution to block the majority of SPAM messages. Upgrading to E2K3 is also an option, but I am not sure if it has anything good built in for blocking unwanted emails? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
