Title: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: enterprise Spam blocking products

We are using Exchange 5.5 and the version of CDO that comes with Exchange 5.5 SP4 has problems. Namely for us. The exchange directory name has to match the AD username, Exchange Alias, and the SMTP address. Which is not true for our environment. So the product did not work for all of my users. Sunbelt did contact me with a possible fix, but I had already moved on to testing another anti-spam package.

What was it about I hate spam server you were worried about with the CDO? I have a customer that installed it and they're pretty happy with it.

Jason,

Two possible solutions to consider:

1. Cloudmark SpamNet - this runs locally on the client and automagically
moves spam from the inbox to a "spam" folder. See http://www.cloudmark.com/

2. Hardware based Spam appliance - this device sits in front of your mail
gateways and filters the mail before it even hits Exchange.  Users get a
daily email report so that they can see what has been blocked and have an
opportunity to request the blocked mail.  An example of this is Espion's
Interceptor appliance - see http://www.espionintl.com/interceptor.html

I started testing different spam products for our company. I'm testing GFI
right now. I'm really like Ihatespam Gateway edition, but it has limitations
because of CDO.

What I'm looking for a software that will move "spam" into a user's folder
other than the inbox without the user having to setup a filter in outlook. I
would also like for the user to have the ability to 'tell' the software when
it missed a spam message or incorrect tags a message as spam. I would prefer
a product that does not run directly on the Exchange box.

We are currently running Exchange 5.5 in a cluster.

I know I'm asking a lot, but I thought will everyone's help I could find a
product that is close.

Thank you.
