I know this has been covered several ways over the years, but searching my archives isn't bringing up what I need. Maybe some of you can help. I want to purchase a hardware appliance to take the "Edge Transport" role for my soon-to-be-installed E2K7 server. I want to know all the options and narrow it down to three or four. So please share opinions and experince on devices that meet the following requirements: - Hardware only. I don't care if I have to install management software, just don't want it on the server. I'm a big fan of decomposed architecture. - Anti-Spam AND Anti-Virus solution (excludes companies like Barracuda). - Less than $5k for 3 years TCO. I don't care if the box is $3k or $5k as long as maintenance and subscriptions keep the total under $5k. - Anywhere from 25 to 100 user device is fine. Possibilities so far (feel free to comment): IronPort C100 Sophos ES1000 Fortinet Fortimail Thanks in advance.
Open to OSS? Try a box running Linux/FreeBSD and Maia Mailguard. Yours for the cost of the hardware and your time. Kurt
