I have a box with linux that is acting as NAT and Firewall (also cache with squid and reverse proxy with pound). I have an internal MS Exchange server that goes to internet via NAT, and i dont have any chance of removing it, but i would like to filter the incoming traffic to remove spam. My net looks something like this: INTERNET <---> x.x.x.x LINUX BOX 10.1.20.100 <---> 10.1.20.1 MS Exchange What can i use in the linux box? I have found things like MessageWall and so, but i need better recomendations from people that already doed it. Thanks!! Ivan Hernandez
