Agreed, you can put an IMGate box on a small server for a couple hundred
dollars
and let it handle outbound as well to keep the load off of a busy IMail
box...
And, you could put ASSP on that same server as Imail and greatly reduce the
Imail load. This however would require you to spend some time
learning/configuring ASSP, Perl, and ClamAV for it's excellent anti-virus
and anti-phishing abilities using the sanesecurity signatures which also do
a great job blocking those image spams, so while it has no initial cost,
there is substantial cost in time at first.
I have found over the years that it is time well spent.
