While I use a custom SpamAssassin/Linux setup here, we looked at GFI
MailEssentials.  For our setup (~400 mailboxes), it was only $950.

My advice would be to find someone who does know Linux (a student, maybe?)
and have them assist you in setting up a Linux/SpamAssassin box.  There are
many, many guides available on the Internet to do this sort of thing.

Here's two...

Subject: SPAM filtering on a budget


Hello list,
I know SPAM filtering products have been covered in great detail but I'm
having problems finding a good gateway SPAM filtering product that's not
going to cost me a lot of money. I have a small organization of about
100 users.  The products that I have found that are reasonably priced
are Xwall ($360.00) and SpamAssassin (free). My problem with
SpamAssassin is that I don't know the first thing about Linux so that's
out of the question.  Xwall seems like a good product but I want a few
more to compare.  My budget won't allow for more than about $800.00.
What cheep products are you using.  Good/Bad experiences.  Any help with
my product search would be great.  

Thanks

Matt
