super, sounds really cheap ... but it adds up in a hurry, $2,000,
$20,000, etc every year.
That's pretty much the scale I heard from Sophos and Trend last year.
Kaspersky AV that can be used in IMGate as an in-line SMTP scanning
service is $560 / year, _unlimited_ users & domains. It's a fine
little "off brand" scanner that's been around several years. I think
it was PC Week or Mag, (ok ok fwiw), that recently awarded Kaspersky
something, so it's becoming known.
If you aren't restricted to one box in a co-location setup, multiple
boxes gives more flexibility and control. The single-function or
lower-function (and lower power or old, "free") boxes are each
simpler to setup and maintain, and provide much better defense of the
user's mailbox server, and provide better scaleability.
