Last week we migrated our mail server to a new, dedicated machine. Because our customers received lots of spam (even though we ran anti-spam software) we decided to implement Postini. Google acquired this company in 2007 and for a good reason: their spam filtering rocks. Although their web interface is nearly impossible to use, virtually no spam makes it through. Since last Wednesday it blocked 81.4% of all incoming messages and put another 8.3% in quarantine. I haven’t seen a single spam message in my personal mail box since we started using Postini. At $3 per mail box per year it’s a bargain.
