Jason, Actually, I agree with your [revised] point but was rather commenting on your initial statement concerning "reduction in bandwith usage to your *mail server.*" (My emphasis.) Sorry for the confusion, if any.

Even with a Bastion server, the intended message, be it spam,virus, or whatever STILL utilizes bandwith on your internet connection. So that your mail server, and every other service traversing your upstream Internet connection benefits.

If you have a virtually free "bastion" box (� la IMGate) in front of your IMail server, then that box would be taking the hits and your IMail server would benefit from the 30% average bandwidth reduction that you mention (or whatever the actual figure is).
