we're running antigen for exchange, we do get a very small
amount of false positives but overallit's a nice product that can
be hand tweaked.

No ISA. They just upgraded to exchange 2000. I think they'll
probably be opened to it sometime down the line, but not now.
Thanks

you can create a nice filter with ISA if you are running
that. check out the isa site, they have a lot of nice stuff. we are in
the process of doing that right now. we are having problems with spam
taking over our companies mailboxes... it sounds like this option will
work for us, but of course so far there is nothing to totally stop it.

So far I've viewed what feels like at least 50
spam filter links and I've basically left it at that. The idea of
preventing all spam from entering the network is a good dream but this
is starting point. Like I said a small office with less than 50 users;
no need to break the bank. So something that can be implemented and that
simply works.

1. You will never prevent all spam from
getting to users inboxes without false positives. Do not let any one
tell you different.
2. They are both good products, although
one has very loud marketing.
3. I have trialed GFI, and the included
keylists created a lot of false positives "out of the box."
4. The war on spam is not simple nor cheap.
5. Since you only have 25 users, have you
thought about using a 3rd party in what is called E-Mail Gateway service
or Store and Forward service?

Anyone have any points they'd care to share as
to why they'd choose one of these products over the other? The need is
to have a centralized spam filter that prevents any and all spam from
making it to the users inbox. Also don't want to have to sit and add
entry after entry of items to be filtered. GFI wins on the pricing being
that I only have 25 users.
I really would like to know how most feel on
this.
Thanks
