I see that now. But budget isn't much of an issue, because data protection
is much more important. I have educated the boss to not skimp out on data
protection.

Now that is a wide spread. If budget is a consideration Mail Essentials is
dirt cheap and MailSweeper will come at a premium.

Great,
Thanks everyone for your input. I think mail sweeper or Mail essentials is
where I am leaning.

We are using MailSweeper from Content Technologies. Does all that and much
more. We not only do what you are asking for, but you can also scan for
words and phrases weighted so that a single instance will not block a mail
unless you want it to. We use it to block SPAM, Chain Letters and hoaxes as
well.
There is even a PORNSweeper component that allows you to search for too much
skin tone in a picture and filter for it. Not overly accurate, but still a
good start for keeping Porn out of your mail.
Downside is that you have to purchase a separate virus scanner that plugs
into MailSweeper. By far the most comprehensive package I have seen and
seems to be very reliable.
Tech support is a mixed bag. They do answer fast and try hard. They even
sent someone out to our site to look at our problem. But, we spent over a
year with a "crippled" install because we were told that we were the only
ones with a particular problem and then after they acknowledged the problem
it took another six months before they fixed it. On the plus side we did
use the product free for a year, even though we could only scan incoming
mail.

I want to be able to block messages with attachments like readme.exe and
.vbs attachments etc. Also be able to add to the list as necessary.
