David,
I think that you can setup free email services just fine with IMail. I would
caution that you do things like lock down your server as much as possible.
Additionally, you need to monitor your server activity very closely.

Thanks,
David Sparkman

Mr. Sparkman,

Do you think that IMail can be used to setup a Free email setup without any
issues?

My personal take on it is to install an IMGateAV machine. I got ours online
this weekend, and I could not be happier. Total cost to implement was about
$1600 dollars. That was with a machine purchase and all software licensing.
The other great thing about the solution is the AntiSpam ability. Using the
RBLs and some well designed regular expression header checks, we have
reduced the amount of spam to a negligible count of all email through the
gateway. I am going to bring several more servers online here in the next
few weeks.

environment


Greetings!

Does anybody know of any virus filtering software that can be used in
conjunction with Imail, on the Imail machine, that scans each individual
email for virii?

I understand that the server would incur a tremendous load (especially on a
machine serving 10-30,000 email addresses).  I'm at my whit's end though.  I
can't seem to block Hybris and a few other virii just by using message
rules, unless of course I filter on the body of the subject....and if I'm
going to do that, I'd much rather use that CPU time to dedicate to actual
virus scanning software that will scan all emails.

Any suggestions?  What methods are you all using to scan for virii?

Thank you in advance for your responses!

Hans Jergensonn
