Hi David, A couple of things: #1: If you're already supplying the email service, you may want to consider the AV-SPAM option. I know your hesitation, but once it's installed, it pretty much just works. #2: We do offer a filtering service that works similarly to your Postini service you have now. A few of the folks on this list are using it. We spin an individual "cloud-based" instance for each customer so there is a good deal of customization that can be done. Let me know (offlist, please) if you'd like more information on our offering. -- Chris Gebhardt VIRTBIZ Internet Services Access, Web Hosting, Colocation, Dedicated www.virtbiz.com | toll-free (866) 4 VIRTBIZ _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list Blueonyx@mail.blueonyx.it http://mail.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
