Justification for mailscanner.

You've already seen what everyone else has said. I am new to
MailScanner, and I find myself wondering how I was getting by without
it. I have seen some of the commercial solutions out there. In fact,
we were considering purchasing the commercial mail server solution
that SmoothWall is soon to unveil (we use their 'Corporate Server'
firewall) to see if it would be any better at stopping spam, but
since stumbling across MailScanner, I don't think so.

Being new to MailScanner, I don't feel as though my words carry much
weight, but I would suggest MailScanner, and even suggest that you
look to http://www.mailscanner.biz for the professional venue of
MailScanner to keep your administrative folks happy.

As far as a GUI goes, might I suggest taking a look at Steve
Freegard's project, MailWatch. You can find it at
http://mailwatch.sourceforge.net and it have proven it's worth and in
my opinion makes MailScanner whole (not that it was lacking before
mind you.) It certainly has proven in-valuable with the reports and
graphs, etc.

That's my two cents worth,

Kind regards,

Craig D.
