I want to ensure that if the content or the Subject line does not contain a paticular text string, i would drop the 
message. That way I am able to restrict incoming emails to only those pertaining to our line of business

You can check e-mail content using smtp-resources, but this is not a 
solution for inspecting a large volume of messages, your FW will be 
overloaded for sure.You can check email content usin an IPS such as ISS 
Proventía, snort_inline, tipping point,  an antispam sucha as barracuda 
spam firewall or just directlly in your smtp server using postifx 
spamassessing... What type of content are you triyin to search? an 
specific with just some regex or  SPAM?

Does anyone have a clue on a checkpoint product that can act as an Security policy enforcer ? 
Assuming that I need to ensure that all incoming emails contain only certain contents, any bthother comntent would 
make the email be dropped. I have seen Posini. IS there any other out there ?
