Our company is a small ISP. We currently serve the residential sector
with dial-up, and the business sector with broadband. In about 2
months, we are going to start serving the residential sector with broadband.
We are currently using Declude Junkmail Pro, and Virus Pro. Up to this
point, we haven't had many problems with people sending out virus' or
spam from our network, and when it does happen, it gets shutdown very
quickly.
I've heard that one of the major problems facing broadband ISP's is
people getting infected with a bot, and then mass-mailing stuff out
directly. I *DO NOT* want to be a spam/virus happy ISP. There's
already enough of those out there :)
What I'm contemplating is setting up a redirect so that any traffic
originating from the residential sector, destined for an outside address
with the port of 25 be redirected to my IMail server for scanning.
Right now, we don't block anything with Junkmail that is outbound, and
obviously, we're not running Hijack. So I'm thinking I'd need to enable
Junkmail to take action on outbound mails, and also implement Hijack.
Does this sound reasonable? Any tips from the trenches would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Russ
