Hi,<br />
I am looking for some personal experiences and recommendations for a cloud based AntiSPAM solution.<br />
I use Barracuda Hardware devices for my large clients and in the last year have used Barracudas cloud solution (BESS) for my smaller clients.<br />
BESS just doesn't currently cut it though as I need a cloud solution that will allow:<br />
<br />
Users to easily check their blocked and quarantined items (Currently BESS only sends out an E-Mail when things are Quarantined which means false-positives that are blocked can end up impossible to recover for the user).<br />
More granularity for rating and therefore blocking/quarantining/tagg<wbr />ing the mail.<br />
<br />
I have tried CudaMail however its the same issues as above.<br />
I love Barracuda but it looks like I'm going to have to use another solution. Any thoughts?

Solid Cloud Based Antispam with user quarantine

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

Various techniques are used to prevent email spam (unsolicited bulk email). No technique is a complete solution to the spam problem, and each has trade-offs between incorrectly rejecting legitimate email (false positives) vs. not rejecting all spam (false negatives) - and the associated costs in time and effort. Anti-spam techniques can be broken into four broad categories: those that require actions by individuals, those that can be automated by email administrators, those that can be automated by email senders and those employed by researchers and law enforcement officials.

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.
