There has got to be better security than all that has been discussed regarding
Internal and External spam for ISP's.
I don't mean that all of what you have mentioned is not effective. Certainly, if
someone reads the logs, compares the systme files, finds the culprits, etc. ect. etc.
---"to death."
Then we can eliminate internal spammers and external spoofers. But AT WHAT COST????
--- Pardon me for shouting, but I have to pay staff to review this information,
compare one log to another, and all the rest.
IMail is not the "most expensive" or the "cheapest" -- But I, for one, am NOT
satisfied that a module can not be employed which can detect internal spammers more
effectively, and eliminate the "NO DOMAIN EXISTS" external spammers who steal my
bandwidth to send out ........
Yes. I have the "support contract" ...."Yes" I've been told I have the best security
IMail employs.
Sorry, Charlie.......It's not good enough.
The cost is $1503 for the basic, and another $453 for annual support (and yes, they
answer the phone)........but to what point:????
I still spend hundreds of dollars on staff "looking and comparing logs"
Is there a better one out there?????
And if so.......... I want a refund !!!!!
