If using MS Exchange, I'd have no hesitation in recommending GFI MailEssentials. Great product.

Mailwasher works fine for me, as reccommended by someone here who is paid to know a lot more about IT than i do.

Depends on how much you want to spend, we've just invested in Postini, then behind that we have brightmail and behind that we have both Mailsweeper and Mail marshal running for spam/AV/Content checking but I doubt the DSC has enough cash in the pot for one of these let alone the lot if I'm honest.

Luckily the DSC doesn't use Exchange!

I can't remember what it is though to be honest.

Yep, I was guessing the DSC budget would be more in line with the MailEssentials product.

It can work of various spam lists as well, eg spamhaus.org, so it picks up known spamming sources which is where most of the junk comes from.

Its free, simple to use, works on multiple accounts, and you get to keep your current email program too.

I've been using MailWasher Pro for over two years now - I just couldn't manage without it these days! Cost is less than $40 so it's not a lot to pay for a much easier life!
