Tim, We are using the Proofpoint appliance (http://www.proofpoint.com/) to block spam and have been extremely happy with it. Users are presented with a daily digest if they have spam messages and are able to release individual messages. Also, users are able to white and grey list addresses through a web interface and this has been popular as well. No complaints that I'm aware of. Elliott Franklin, CISSP Information Security Officer Texas State University - San Marcos http://www.txstate.edu/computing/security 512.245.2595 _____ From: The EDUCAUSE Security Discussion Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Tim Lane Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 5:37 AM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU 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.
