David,
My contract with Google ended in November, prior to that I moved my services over to SpamHero. In fact with SpamHero I got a good rate, and became the reseller. The only bad part about being the "reseller" is that I now have to handle all tech support for the product. Honestly it isn't that hard, but then again I don't have a ton of customers either. When I compare SpamHero and Postini I find I still have some messages that slip through, but there is a handy e-mail address I can forward them to, so the filters help get trained better. I have found the same amount of missed spam with both services. With SpamHero I actually have someone I can contact if things have gone horribly wrong. I know you had a reseller so your experience will be different than mine was, but I had no way to get a hold of Google to request help, or report bugs or feature suggestions. SpamHero on the other hand has a ticketing system for submitting bugs and issues. They have a community driven feature suggestion thingy. I can go read what others have requested and either add my voice to that or say I think it is a bad idea. There are other services out there as well, I looked at a number of them last summer. I would need to find my notes on them to give a run down of what I found on the other ones I did not go with. Drew.
