I'm running MAILSweeper 4.2 for SMTP, which does not bolt onto Exchange
system at all.  We use an "IN-Box" which sits on the DMZ and pretty much
just checks for inbound Viruses, Size Restrictions, and also blocks unwanted
mail by SMTP address.  This box is also used as an SMTP relay so that
internal UNIX/Listserv machines have a way to get mails outbound.  A second
box is used for Outbound mail.  The great thing about MIMESweeper is that it
links with most major AV Apps. (we use Sophos for MIMESweeper and the
Desktop, Trend on Exchange), can do Legal Disclaimers, and does a great job
of keeping unwanted e-mails completely out of the Exchange environment.  If
you are going to terminate an employee and delete their Exchange account,
then you can put their SMTP address into a MIMESWeeper rule thus giving the
ability to send out a canned response that the employee no longer works
there, and also stops the DNR issue.  All in all, a great product, but
pretty complicated.  You really need to work with the product a lot to get
used to it, and Content Technologies / Baltimore does offer training and
certification. (I'm certified).

Subject: Re: Antigen and Email Content Filter


I've just taken over running my companies system using Mailsweeper - it
seems to do everything - it bolts into some very powerful anti-virus
software and can filter on just about anything - predefined word lists,
phrases, boolean expressions, it will sort into multiple containers,
manage those containers itself, forward email notifications for certain
types of rogue messages etc. We use a version on a standalone machine
between our ISP and Exchange which seems to work very well as it is very
processor intensive. I'm very impressed with it - not much spam gets
through at all now.
