I understand, although because SM is so cheap many customers have migrated some of their customers off of their Imail onto a SM box to help reduce load on the Imail at the same time. Yes the cost is time, an additional server, SM and Declude. But I think you have had some good feedback, regarding Alligate and ORF at one point someone was touting ASSP but not sure how well that works.

David: We have such an investment in Imail that it is not feasible for us to switch. Migration cost would be huge. We host several hundred domains. Actually we looked at switching about a year ago and we decided if we would switch it would be to Merak mail (at least based upon our evaluation at that time). Chuck Schick Warp 8, Inc.

Chuck, Just FYI Some of these things can be achieved with SmarterMail they are able to block connects on the SMTP. David -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chuck Schick Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2007 3:27 PM To: Declude. JunkMail Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Spam gateway/proxy... Anyone using a spam gateway (Like IMGATE) or proxy (like ASSP) in front of declude. I am intrigued by the idea of using something that will reject the messages before accepting it for delivery and then scanning it. I would only want to use the gateway/proxy to perform graylisting, Sender Validation, tar pitting. According to Len Conrad this could result in a 70 to 90 percent reduction in spam. Ultimately I would like our spam filtering to be where we reject the message before the data command and messages that we do accept for delivery we scan with declude and if it is identified as spam it will be delivered to a junkmail folder in the users mailbox - which they can check via webmail or configure their mail clients to download it. I want to get out of the business of holding or deleting spam. Any thoughts, comments, ...? what have others done. Chuck Schick Warp 8, Inc.
