Hello All,

I am looking for a "Good" SPAM filter for Outlook. It is intended for
use in a California based non-profit ORG. However the key requirement
is that should be maintenance free. There is no IT dept at this ORG.

There are 6 users who will need the filtering software, and we will
purchase if it is reasonably priced. (unless if someone wants to
donate we will give them a tax-deductible donation receipt :-)

Two options come to mind.  First is Cloudmark Desktop, which is a
commercial product.  It sells for around $40 per seat although I think
the company does offer volume discounts.  The other option is the
SpamBayes Outlook plugin.  Before I sold my ISP I used to give that to
customers who could not or would not switch to Thunderbird and wanted
additional spam filtering.  There is a bit of maintenance involved
with SpamBayes as I recall but I received few complaints.  I am not as
certain about Cloudmark as I have not used it as much.
