Hey Ken,
Can't believe you didn't include 'MagicMail' in that list of on-premise
email servers ;)
Since it has built in spam-protection, no need for another filtering
device in front.
Frankly, spam protection belongs 'in' the email server, IMHO..

PS, may be time to put up a new list of email servers and mail filtering
appliances somewhere for people who ask these types of questions, rather
than everyone pitching their services on the list.
The Wikipedia data seems woefully out of date.

Hi Otto,
For frontends, and if you don't mind a bit of hacking, take a look at MailCow
(https://mailcow.email/) and Modoboa(https://modoboa.org/en/). They will sit in
front of an open-source mail application stack and provide quarantine and
allow-list control for end users.
For on-premise all-in-one solutions, look at Zimbra (https://www.zimbra.com/)
or Open-Xchange (https://www.open-xchange.com/).
I have no personal experience of any of these, they were all potential
solutions a client was testing a while ago. Their business case was different
to your one, but similar situation with current vendor EOL.
And I'm assuming you want open-source. If you don't, there a plenty of fine
filtering appliances that have user-level control.
Ken.

Subject: [mailop] Locally hosted anti-spam solution recommendations?
We're currently running Roaring Penguin CanIT as our mail frontend, and
have been given an end-of-life notice from the new owners:
https://go.zixcorp.com/index.php/email/emailWebview?md_id=21715
So, now we're looking for a good frontend with antispam functions.
CanIT is a set of open source software (Sendmail, Spamassassin,
blocklists, ClamAV, opendkim etc) packaged with a nice web gui interface
to control it all on a locally hosted Linux server.
And that's basically what we'd also need to replace it.
Some random cloud hosting spam solution is not a viable option, we're a
Finnish government owned contractor. Also we need to know (if need be)
what happened to each and every email coming and going, not "perhaps our
proprietary spam system ate it, we won't tell you"
as so many of these cloud solutions seem to be.
Any recommendations?
