We are about to release BarricadeMX for Microsoft / Exchange servers. 
This will permit an Exchange server (2003 or 2007) to share the 
watermarking secrets with an incoming MailScanner gateway running 
BarricadeMX. This will allow the Exchange server to add the watermarking 
secret to mail sent out directly from the Exchange server.

Since BarricadeMX can be configured to work as a simple solution which 
calls SpamAssassin and ClamAV on mail that is accepted for delivery, 
this can provide simple but effective anti-spam / anti-virus with a web 
interface for Microsoft admins :)

BTW we'll be looking for Beta users for BarricadeMX on Exchange. Please 
email me off list if you are interested. We'll only have a limited 
number of betas so first come, first served.

Best regards,
