Apples to oranges, but right now my "solution" is a program called Mail
Essentials which does both.  It's running on a 400 mhz box and keeps up
fine.  Working at that box is really slow as the services claim all the cpu
cycles (no way to nice it) but it's quite responsive remotely (mapped drive,
remote admin & the like).  

It would be interesting to see just how much spam & virii get filtered.
Don't have a machine at the moment, but it'll probably be on a box that's at
least a gig speedwise.  Just have to figure out where to steal it from! ;-)
I'm sure that will be plenty - can't imagine a modern Linux box being
outperformed by an outdated Windows unit...
