My immediate response to them.

This is a joke, right?

To pay over six thousand dollars for an addon virus software backed by an
unnamed virus company is ludicrous.   I could (and DID!)  build a machine,
install one of _many_ known, tested, and capable antivirus solutions, and
still have enough money left over for christmas bonuses.  My mailserver gets
roughly 5000 messages an hour, and averages 0.2% of infected mails.  That's
10 mails per 5000.   I would much rather see support for an anti-spam
addition, which accounts for an average of our 20% of incoming mails.  A
base level of RBL or ORBZ checking would have been time and money better
spent in the R&D lab, in my opinion.

Thanks for bringing a little bit of joy and laughter to me on this holiday
season.

John
