If I was going to decide I would ask myself:
Pro IMGate
1) Do I know unix or want to know unix.
2) Do I have the space for another box (or two)
3) Do I want to spend the money for the hardware
4) Do I have the time to learn how to get all the
pieces that make up IMGate
5) Is my customer base large enough to where I need to
off load some processing.
Pro Declude
1) Dont' have to mess with learning unix right now
2) Less points of hardware/failure the better
3) My time costs more than the price of Declude
4) I don't have to buy money for hardware.
Both are anti-spam, but IMGate also offloads processing
We use Declude and it works well, but we want to offload some processing
like IMGate without adding more machines.
We currently are in an all NT environment with 2 servers that act as
domain controllers and name servers. We would like to add a function
similar to what IMGate is doing without buying 2 more Imail licenses.
We are exploring a product called Inframail that will act as a gateway,
does Maps/Orbs as well as adding filters. The product is very robust,
has an interesting scripting language, and I am trying to persuade the
author to add a command line anti-virus (like DOS Norton Anitvirus) and
he is exploring that possibility. (http://www.infradig.com)
So many choices .........;-)
