Personally I like Trend stuff, it tends to just work, and work very well IMHO. I'd look at Scanmail as it will scan everything, inbound/outbound, internal, external and can be used on as many Exchange servers as you like so long as your licence covers the relevent number of users. Anti spam is a little trickier as it depends on your budget and a few other things. If you have an old machine spare I'd really suggest spending a short while investigating Spamassassin - downside is it's a *nix product so you need to get your head around more things, but for the price (totally free except for the time and a box to run it on) you will not do better. I'd also suggest a look at Xwall from www.dataenter.at, cheap and works well IME - I don't have any experience of the really expensive products, but I'd suggest spamassassin is as good as any of them if you have the time to spare. regards, Paul _________________________________________________________________ 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: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
