I remember talking to someone at Symantec Tech Support a couple of years back.
There were two requests I had. The first was tarpitting. He said they had received a lot of requests for that and were working on it. He put my second on the customer "wishlist" for developer evaluation. It was the ability to configure the following: a) Antivirus scans all attachments, deletes infected b) All unzipped executables are stripped with notification c) Zipped executables are allowed to pass. With the then-current version, it was not possible for all these conditions to be configured at the same time. SMSSMTP was a pretty good product. It had an excellent web-based management interface with a brilliant and effective built-in log search tool. I wish all logs were that quick and easy to search!
