They do use resellers - you can buy direct or from a reseller. You can contact me offline for reseller info

While I don't mind, is that a sign of a company that isn't very large or well sustained yet?

They suggest the number of domains and users that should be on an appliance, but this is a guideline. It all depends on the amount of mail processed thru it daily and the loads it can handle Randy A.

Product looks good. Anyone else use Mailfoundry device? Compared to a Barracuda? TR From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Randy Armbrecht Sent: Monday, October 08, 2007 12:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] OT: Barracuda 200/400 We use a mailfondry 2100 device (mailfoundry.com) that sits infront of our Imail server; we have about 225 domains of the 450 or so we service on this box (we include this with any standard package, or if you have an econo package, you can opt-in to add this to your service) interface is extremely easy to use; setup takes 10 minutes at most. each domain admin can have their own login to view quarantine, set custom filters/whitelists, etc. Also provides for quarantine report to be emailed to each recipient address detailing messages held in quarantine since last report (reports options are none sent, sent hourly or sent daily) Currently we use it for incoming only, but it could easily serve as an SMTP gateway as well. It supports email passing to other mail servers, or an Exchange hookup, all on a per-domain basis. We process about 200,000 messages a day just on these 225 domains that are on this appliance. This takes a good size load off our Imail/Declude, as Declude is only filtering (as a 2nd level double-check) those 20% of messages for these domains that pass thru. We are at the point where we need to upgrade to the next size to properly handle the increasing loads, but we only see a second or 2 delay as it stands now. The customers who are on it love it; these customers weren't affected by our declude stopping a week or 2 ago whereas our declude-only customers were hammered with Spam when that occured. Based on that, we are considering moving everyone to the device as a complimentary piece of the pie. Randy A.

Ease of use? Versus Imail Premium? Versus Symantec Mail Security? Versus anything else? Reliability? Regards, Travis
