I disagree with the assertion that it is _always_ bad news to outsource. There are a number of outsourced spam filtering solutions where the administrator can log in and access mail which had been quarantined. That mail can then be released to the intended recipient. By outsourcing the filtering, you are able to save on bandwidth (less mail incoming... Which makes a difference if you're blocking 50k+ messages a day) and the maintenance of the hardware and software is outsourced to a group which does nothing but think about that all day. Similar things can be true of outsourcing e-mail services in general.
Certainly outsourcing such services is not appropriate for every organization, but by the same token there more than a few shops which insist on doing everything in house, when all signs point to outsourcing being a better solution for them.
