Filippo, We had a similar problem. Due to the huge volumes of spam we found our mail server becoming less able to deal with email. Imail/Declude/Sniffer is expensive in processor terms when processing email and we found the best was to pre-process mail filtering using Greylisting (we used Vamsoft in IIS SMTP but others exist). This has dramatically reduced the load on our server and seems to stop the bulk of spammers and mail harvesters
Hope this helps.
