Re: Information on Commercial Anti Spam Software

["Kubb, Rick" <rkubb () MARYVILLE EDU>]

At Maryville we use a product called COMMTOUCH.  Works very well for us.
It is not content based which satisfies the academic side of the house.
Very intuitive and easily managed.  Users write their own rules.
Expensive though, I believe our annual license for this is around
$13,000.

Subject: [SECURITY] Information on Commercial Anti Spam Software

 

Hi All,

I am wanting to get an indication of what commercial anti spam software
is being used in other institutions.  We are looking for an "off the
shelf " package and wanting to minimise inhouse development as much as
possible .

Could anyone using commercial anti spam software please provide
information on what they are using and any thoughts they have on the
product they are using.

Please, no sellers of products - only institutions using products.

Thanks very much,

Tim Lane
