Am curious to know who's using an appliance or an external service (as
distinct from software running on the MTA) to aggressively filter spam for
their campus.  Additionally, do any of you employ products which filter
spam from email traffic as well as filter spyware from HTTP; who's using
what?

If I may add to the question:

If you are using an appliance and were previously using something
else, what are the comparative benefits?
