We deployed Sophos PureMessage quite a few years ago and are very happy with the results. We like the flexibility of the full version and haven't considered their appliance at this stage. PureMessage seems pretty good at stopping phishing attempts, although we still get users who release them from the quarantine and reply.

We are polling members to determine how they perform e-mail spam and malware protection:· How many outsource spam protection (e.g., to Postini)?· How many perform spam protection in-house (e.g., using Ironport or Forefront)?· In either case, what service or application do you use? · In general, are you satisfied with your solution?Any feedback is appreciated.*/Patrick J.
