Hmmm.. Lets see..The goal of marketing is to generate lots of interest and discussion in a product....
Hmmm.. I think the tagline did a good job of that wouldn't you say... And its only "Misleading" if that product doesn't do what they say its going to do. Like I said before, "We'll see" If it works, we have another option in the fight against Spam, if it doesn't it won't be around long and Barracuda will solidify its position in the marketplace.

It's a market that customers like to throw money at. I'm sure Sunbelt has a decent entry. But this is a pretty impressive customer list: http://www.barracudanetworks.com/ns/customers/customer_list.php Does it intercept cookies? http://www.hello-cthulhu.com/?date=2003-11-30 On an unrelated note... is the interface skinnable? http://www.kittyhell.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/hello-kitty-assault- rifle.jpg From: Andy Shook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2008 11:28 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer Why the crap are you taking issue with Sunbelt's marketing tactics? It's their product, dude and they certainly don't have to justify themselves to the list. I don't care if they called it the "Mac daddy wonder-box of spam boogers" Let's see what it can do and how is it going to help me in the ongoing battle against spam.

Excellent, maybe a UI improvement is in order for a future release, this should be an obvious and easy to change feature (like right there on that page with the three levels as a 4th option with a "customize..." button). Thanks for the quick replies, that's a good sign. :) ~JasonG -- ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja ~
