Our problem is more with Mailstreet, the VAR that resells MXLogic to us.
We think the cost is too high. And, the biggest problem we have is, they
are charging us for mailboxes we don't have. As the SPAM hits MXLogic,
mailboxes get created up there for addresses that don't exist, and we
get charged for them. Every week I have to go to the MXLogic portal and
clear out hundreds of non-existent addresses they think we have.

When we first signed on with them, their SMTP discovery option worked
well. They didn't add a mailbox up there until they got a valid response
on our mailserver. A few months later, they changed the way they did
things. Now, if they don't get a false answer from our mailserver within
a few milliseconds, they add the mailbox anyway. Plus, we have had
problems with them actually blacklisting one of our own SMTP servers
sending mail to our own addresses. If we have it in-house, we will be
able to avoid blacklisting ourselves!
